Selph of St. Louis, Mo., was recommended In a report by two in- | spectors made public yesterday by Chairman Zihlman of the House com- | mittee on post office expenditures. | Belph is a democrat. whose term ex- pires within ten days. The committee requested vestigation in May, 1921, after filing | of charges the Postal Reform As- | sociation of St. Louis citizens. It was charged that Selph was “loud hot-tempered, insulting and arrogant, lacking in tolerance and fairness,” in his alleged dealing with employes. Thirteen specific counts were embrac- ed in the charges. The inspectors, J. S. Lemon and J. F. Gartland, gave seven reasons | - iwhy Selph “does not deserve to be; retained in office” and his removal | was recommended on the ground, | among others, that he had “unjustly caused the removal of employes; abused employes by repeated trans. férs and changes: defrauded the gov- jernment of the time of employes and use of equipment for personal and political ends; appeared in office be- fore employes in an intoxicated con- dition, and secured advances on un- earned salary.” TREASURY HERO MEDALS AWARDED TO SAILORS The prdinary January Sale does not include the new incoming patterns, but we have decided to throw every Dining R Suite into this tremendous mer- chandising event.
