HAYS Tremendously Interested in Welfare Work Among Pos- tal Employes of U. S. Postmaster General Will H." Hays is tremendously interested in welfare work among the employes of the Post Office Department, especlally among the forces of the big city post offices of the country. ‘The great interest displayed by the Postmaster General in such work car- ried on at the Washington city post office, which he visited late yesterday afternoon, is believed to forecast fu- ture action on the part of the postal chief in post offices throughout the country. That night workers at the Washing- ton city post office can get a cup of coffee for 2 cents in their own lunch- room particularly impressed Postmaster General Hays. Comments The Washington City Club, with its.bowling alleys and. other | features, was favorably commented upon by Mr. Hays, who inspected each feature with his unusual enthusiasm. It is belleved that the new Postmas- ter General finds in such welfare work an- undertaking not only dear to his but a means to rapldly spread the program of “humanizing™ the postal service upon which he has placed such stress since he charge. ; Far-spreading results may . even- the postal service to the Washington city post office, results which would spread their beneficent effects to class post office throughout the length and breadth of the country. Not that the welfare work at the city post |office here s beyond bettering, but that it is a big start along the lines which Postmaster would like to see generally realized. 1 Satiafied E: yes In Alm, | Satisfied employes, happy employes | —this is the aim of the new adminis- tration, for it is felt that only such employes can give to the country the service which the country de- General Hays _As for the. money consideration, it is felt by officials that postal em- ployes are generally well satis since the postal reclassification of st | vear. As a matter of fact: postal workers throughout the country are generally better off, in the financial way, than the employes in the Post Office Department here.

She had caught the spirit of the Postmaster General “Today the hearts of the clerks are fairly singing with joy. and each verse of hope in their official happiness closes with the refrain, ‘The doors are open, the doors are open,” and they know that at any time the way is clear for each and every one to reach the general” declared a clerk in the Post Office Department, following the “get together” meeting with Mr. H: yesterday. : “They know first of al continued this tribute, “that at the head of the great postal service they have a man to respect, a man to love and a man for whom all will be will- ing to work their fingers to the bone.
