county auditor.
There is rumor to the effect that write
in might be indicated on the Democratic
ticket for auditor and if this be the case, the
candidate must receive Is percent of the total
vote cast.
On the precinct level candidates will be
elected for central committee, but even here,
there are only few cases where contest is
involved.
If this lack of interest continues on cleo
ton day. May 6, it means the county will be
spending several thousand dollars just SO that
a few can vote.
Voting is really privilege but it is ex-
tremely difficult to educate the people to this
fact.
Noble countians, however, aren't unique
in this respect, as the apathy extends over
the entire state with very little interest being
shown, although the state candidates are
beating around the bushes to arouse a token
vote.
But next Tuesday, the little American
flags will indicate your voting booth and it
should behoove each and everyone of you to
exercise this American Way of Life.

job in taking over as post

was greatly admired-his
heroic attempts TO get this
incubus on the necks of the
taxpayers into the black, merit
the thanks of every American
citizen. But now he spills the

to call a spade a spade, closely
resembles blackmail (no pun
intended).
At any rate, Senator Olin D.
Johnston( Democrat South
Carolina) who is Chairman Of
the Senate Postoffice Com
mittee, was quick to point out
that Mr.. Summerfield was
very much out of line in hook
ing together the building of
new postoffices with an in
creased first-class mail rate.
The day following the black
mail pronouncement of the P.

attention to two very pertin-
ent facts-(D All the money

Dear Editor:
l am writing this to further
acquaint the people of Caldwell
with the Cub Scout organization.
Under the able leadership of
Cubmaster, Jack Reed, the Cub
Scouts are rapidly growing into
one of the most worthwhile
organizations yet to come to
Caldwell.
We hear much about the
proper training of our youths of
today. The Cub Scouts encour-
ages this training through par
ent-child relationship and goes
on to lead the boy to become a
Boy Scout.

relation between the building
of new postoffices, or any
other federal buildings for that
matter, and Congress approx
ing a five-cent rate on first
class letters, or any other
postal rate increases.
We all want better mail ser
vice. We all want the Post
office to get on to a "no-loss"
basis. What is more, isn't it
true that we consider ourselves
the most progressive, prosper
Gus nation on Gods green foot
stood? Then surely, to be con-
sistent, we deserve the best
postal service in the world.
Does anyone for a moment
believe we are getting that
best postal service?
So, we are heartily in favor
Of Mr.. Summarfield's drive to
ct Us that best postal SER
vie We question some of his
methods, however, especially
this most recent attempt to
blackmail Congress to give
him a scent rate on letters
before he'll proceed to give US
those badly needed new post
offices. While adniring his
zeal, we deplore this playing
of crude politics on the part
of a topranking Cabinet Of
ficer.
AS said in the opening SEN
tence of this essay, the Post
master General has upset the
applecart-one now wonders
if he should get that scent rate
on first class letters, or any
rate increase at all.
Resorting to BLACKMAII.
