MAIL EARLY' MOVE the battle mong | BUDAPEST, April 23—Several peraons were arrested here re- Trade Bodies Supporters of Postmaster Chance’s Cam- paign to Speed Delivery. Among the stanch supporters of the “Mail ecarly—mail often” campaign in- augurated recentiy by the Washington post office are the Washington Chamber of Commerce, the Washing- ton Board of Trade and the Mercants and Manufacturers’ Association Each of these organizations has placed the matter before its executive board, and brought the attention of its membership to the m: early move. fn every v the organizations are helping In the movement Officials of the three bodies were | enthusiastic today in their praise of the “mail early” aign, especially of the “quick on” box system now in operation along the north sllle—l of Pennsylvania avenue and the south | side of I street Secretary Seymour of the l‘humberf of Commerce pointed out that the recent letter of Postmaster Chance, explaining the movement nd asking the full co-operation of i ness men. had been printed in 1t} amber's magazine. and thus brought to the| attention of all members. 1 Richard Connor of the Board of Trade stated that the body was unan imously behind the movement, and itself was practicing the “Mail early —mail often” princivie as far as pos- sible. Advantages to Business Man. Charles J. Columbus, secretary of the Merchar and Manufac ¥ Association. praised the “mail early” movement highly. and it is due to Postmaster Chance his endeavor to lift t ‘peak load” of mailing from the early evening hours to_earlier in the afternoon. Mr. Columbus said there d great cred- n were diffi- eulties in the way of m ts and others putting the movement into the fullest practice, incident to the nor- mai flow of a day's work. but that he felt sure all the members of his as gociation were co-operating to the fullest extent possible. He pointed out the advantages to the business man of getting his important mail for out of town into the local post office as soon as possible each day. so that the earliest possible delivery may be made in the city to which addressed. CITY POSTAL EMPLOYE BENEFITS BY NEW ORDER Richard H. Bryan Perhaps First of Superannuates of Country to Be Retained. Richard H. Bryan, special clerk at the Washington city post office, is believed 1o be the first postal employe in the United States to benefit by the new policy in regard to retention of super- ‘annuates announced this week by Post- master General Hays. Mr. Bryan was to have been retired ‘Wednesday, being sixty-nine vears old. and was bidding his associates, with whom he has worked since 18%3, fare- well, when a staving order came from the Post Office Department He now is being retained until the full policy of the department in re- ®ard to retentions is worked out. His case offers some peculiar fe: tures. owing to the fact that the las: administration first considered special clerks as supervisora. who are refired at seventy yearx This order later was rescinded. so that it was deter- mined that these clerks should have been retired at sixty-five years. Mr. Bryan is in charge of the cir- cular section of the Washington city post office. Last May 1 he presented, on behalf of the postal workers. a ®old watch to Albert W. Thorn, mail separator, who was retired at that time after half a century in the service. TWO FORMER DIPLOMATS MAY RETURN TO SERVICE David Jayne Hill Is Suggested for Japan and Henry L. Wilson for Post in Italy. Dr. David Jayne Hill, former am- bassador to Germany. is understood to be under serious consideration for appointment to a high diplomatic post. | probably Japan. Henry Lane Wilson. former ambas- sador to Mexico. also is looked upon as being certain of appointment to the diplomatic service. Italy is be- lieved to be the place to which he will be assigned. Both Dr. Hill and Mr. Wilson have had long diplomatic experience, a con- sideration which weighed strongly in their favor when the President. short- ‘dy after his inauguration, asked the 8tate Department to prepare a sum- mary of the records of all aspirants for ° diplomatic posts. In addition Both men are said to be acceptable to the present department officials, as well as to Mr. Harding’s political ad- virers. Dr. Hill. a well known writer on political subjects. was assistant sec- retary of state from 1%98 to 1903. and subsequently served as minister to Switzerland and to the Netherlands before accepting the ambassadorship to Germany. He was at Berlin from 1908 to 1911 Mr. Wilson’s diplomatic service be- ®an in 1907, when he was named min- ister to Chile. and was interrupted in 1913. when he resigned as ambassador to Mexico after a break with Presi- dent Wilson over the Mexican policy of the democratic administration, Meantime he had been minister to Greece and Belgium. and had been ap.. pointed to Turkey. a post which he | never filled because President Tafr changed his mind and sent him to| Mexico instead. ! | AMUSEMENTS Austin Conradi Recital.
