- [ 1 POSTAL EMPLOYES FAVOR 8HOUR DAY PolFto Show Washington Of- i fice Workers Want This ti- for Betterment. Overwhelming vote of Washington ity post office employes for a stralght eight-hour working day is predicted in Y & poll of the office to be taken Monday n the contest for suggestions for the Detterment of welfare conditions there. If the desire of the local employes for the eight-hour tour of duty instead of the eight-and-one-half hour, which vails, asserts itself this will before Postmaster General now The present system of eight-and ene-half hours’ duty, including a hal Dour for lunch prevails not only in the Washington city post offige. it is declared, but in larger offices of the country. So if the vote of the local Postal workers shows a_prepondering Senttment for the straight eight hours of service it may point a way to a re- storation of the same hours at other. larger post offices of the country. Lends Other Sugxestions. The suggestion of eight hours’ duty led all the rest in those turned in 1o the city postmaster. more than forty of the: seventy-five answers favoring it. This _would mean that employves would bave a half hour for lunch out of the eight hours, instead of being forced to remain at the office an ex- tra half hour each day to make up for the half-hour luncheon period. General Answers Ruled Out. Judges in the suggestion contest have ruled out of consideration gen- eral answers which have to do with ‘general departmental conditions, and have confined the questions to voted on to answers dealing purely ‘with the personnel at the post office. It seems the sentiment in the local post office that the eight-hour tour of duty would not only prove.im- mensely popular with the employes, but would result in as much real work as- s now accomplished in eight and a half hours. LENIN BRANDED AS WOLF MASQUERADING AS LAMB Reader Cautions Americans Not to Be Misled by “Arch-Crim- inal’s” Overtures. “Tw'the Bitor of The Star: I read with a great deal of appre- henslon your editorial in the Sum- day Star of March 27, entitled “Lemin Recognizes the Limit,” be- cause it is quite apparent that in the great kindness of The Star's at- titude in all questions, whatever they may be, there is already an inclination 1o accept Lenin's apparent tendency to & reversal of position in his com c principles. It is very di cult indeed for the average person to realize that one who makes such pre- tenstons as he is now could possibly do so without being sincere. I would be well, however, to re- member that Lenin has thrust his theories upon a helpless Russia in the manner ever known in his- ion as though he were de- ecompancti stroying inanimate objects. The only Iimit which Lenin could possibly rec- oguize would be that, for the present, his mad career is in danger of being Semporarily curtailed. It is to be supposed that thi @esire 'hnu: fanatia, fn his mad to t his istic theories upon the enttre world. even at a sacrifice of a grest portion of its population: Tevolution or through world any means to accomplish this end, reed basi io the man who. dating back to the revolution in Russia of 1905, and previous to that time, has preached the doctrines of destruction of capitalism and the private right . of ownership, ean have nbnlfli‘:fl that so quickly by’any milder the- ory? Is it likely that the man who has robbed every Russian who has not_ acco: to the fullest extent with his terroristic regime, subject- ing the major part of the population t sacrificing the lives of its best Teaching this time proba- Bly into the millions, with as little to the most hoerible suffering ever could submit in so lamb-like manner to what we know as the a right order of things, without having underneath the mental reservation that it is but the means to an end? The international group of com- munists with which Lenin is so prom- inently affiliated is only recognizing that the present grip which they have upon Russia is being weakened, and knowing as they do that the so- called bolshevist movement there is bat secondary to @ great international one for world revolution, th they hope to institute the wl dictation of the proletariat every- where, they are, through the mouth of Lenin, the subtlest propagandist probably in the world today. en- deavoring to deceive the rest of the world into believing that they are changing front and admit that thefr- goonomic theories are inapplicable, t they are only doing so in order %o obtain the necessary pause to en- @ble them to turn their forces in the game direction in another country, for they not only have one of the most efficient organizations existing in the world today, but they are de- termined to destroy the whole fabric of civilization in order that they may, through the chaos thus resulting, obe taln political control throughout the world. 1 sincerely trust that that part of e press of the United States which 18 Shown even the slightest indica- tion of taking any other view than the one expressed will scon reverse the position. in order that the people of this country may not be misled by those arch criminals who have ruled Russia for several years into bellev- Ing tbat they are anything but what their acts have shown them to be.
