A bill introduced in the Senate pro- poses to extend to all civilian employes of the government or oNthe District employed in this city the right to purchase suppl from the quarter- master department of the Army or the Navy at the rates which are officers of the Army, Navy ine Corps. If this bill were passed it would require the govern- ment to establish ration stores suffi- cient for the suppiying of a large frac- tion of the local community, the gov- ernment emploves and their families. While this would. as the proponent of the meas suggesis, serve to train in the supplying of commissary oflice a great nun n experlence valuable in case of war. it would, nevertheless, Lave the et of putting the govern- ment dire 1to the retail supply busine s= mpetition on an unfair ¢ enterprise.

If it is deemed fair and just to give « the three services the Lenefit unent aid in the pro-: curi ¢ supplies it would be much | more fitting to cxtend this aid in the form of direct commutation pay- ments. Undou the paxsage of the pro- posed measure would ffect a very great saving to a large number of pepple in Washington, but would at the same time work ruin to merchants who have invested enormous sums in plants and establishments and whose prosperity depends upon the trade of the government community here, The civilian employes of the government and their famili itute the ma-{ Jority of the population, and if the proposed government store system were adapted practically ail of that trade would be lost to the private enterpris An inevitable effeet of such a con- dition would be to increase the cost of living to those Washingtonians | who are not in the employ of the government, and thus there would be twa casses of people. the greater Aumber of them provided at govern- ment expense—for however near cost” such service is rendered it ‘would entail a financial burden upon the United States—and the remainder paying market prices for their neces- sities. l Tt cannot be believed that such a! blll will ever receive favorable con- sideration in Congres ————————————— A bill to punish “pistol toting” in the District more severely than at present is fatorably reported to the Senate, but it does not provide any assured means . of catching the “toters.” ——————————— Clemenceau on sailing for France says that he will return to America, but only as a ghost.
