BETTER DEALS FOR GIRLS. Chinese Hope to Give Them Equal Rights With Boys. SHANGHAI (#).—One of the hopes of the Nationalists is to give the hlhy girl equal rights with the baby boy. The Chinese boy for ages has had much the best of it all around. He is longed for and prayed for, and when he arrives is pampered and spoiled. Wage-earners are the thing out here—the boys earn much more than girls. It has been the custom of centuries. A girl is not wanted, but the new regime would change all this, or at least put all the little Chinese misses on an equal footing in parental eyes with the tiny male members of the family.

B the Assoclated Press. ‘The Post Office Department an- nounced today that postal savings de- posits for July showed an increase of $4,394,420 over the previous month, the greatest increase for any month since the close of the World War. ‘The amount on deposit was $157,624,- 214, the Jargest peacetime total in the history of the postal savings system. Figures compiled today show that postal savings are mow only $19,204,310 be- low the highest total ever reached, which was $176,828,524 during the World War. Officials of the postal savings system declared that last month, “on account of recent bank failures in Florida fig- ures show that State alone showed an increase in postal savings deposits for July of $2,623,785." Last month, officials said, Asto Oreg.; Uniontown, Pa.; Norfolk, Va., and Passaic, N. J., “show large increases due to bank failures in their localities.” The postal savings system, it was said, deposited all the money withdrawn from the banks in the vicinity of these cities back into the banks from which it had besg withdrawn by panicky depositors. Recent Postmasters General have recommended to Congress that the limit on deposits in the postal savings system now nxed at ‘2 500 be raised to $5,000.
