Vaughan as chairman of the Exhibi- tion Committee for the American Philatelic Society Convention next Vaughan remains an active member of the Convention Committee and will assist Mr. Kunze in his work. J. H. Jenkins, Associated Press, will bé chairman of the Convention Bourse Committee, Dr. Ellis Haworth chair- man of the Entertainment Committee and Valdemar Weiergang chairman of the Reception Committee. An Associated Press dispatch from Chicago Friday said: “A special Me- morial day stamp to honor the few surviving Civil War veterans will be proposed to postal officials by the Ladies of the Grarld Army of the Re- public, it has been announced by Mrs. Pearl C. Cooke, national president. The suggestion originated, Mrs. Cooke said, with the Washington department of the organization.” Connecticut will have to wait until October for her tercentenary com- ‘memorative, A second printing of the 16-cent airmail special delivery stamp has been ordered, making the total edition 10,000,000. ‘The Fort Hamilton Philatelic So- ciety, Fort Hamilton, Ohio, recently a resolution favoring larger commemoratives. “Many of the pres- ent United States commemorative stamps,” the club says, “are over- crowded. An unofficial report says that the 50-cent Zeppelin stamp, the Mary- land and Wisconsin tercentenary com- memoratives and the Mother’s day is- sue soon will be removed from the Philatelic Agency list. ‘There is nothing new in the attitude which the Post Office Department takes toward the commercial possibil- ities of catering to collectors. Post- master General John Wanamaker, Philadelphia merchant, as long ago as 40 years, “counted on” philatelists to help “balance the budget.” Witness this story, reprinted from The Star of January 4, 1893: “Going like hot cakes gives some idea of the demand which has sprung up for the new jubilee (Columbian Exposition) stamps. Orders for large amounts have been received at the Post Office Depart- ment, and it is presumed that the demand mainly comes from business firms who wish to use the new stamps for advertising purposes. The theory is that circulars bearing these stamps will attract attention, and that the e | recipients of the circulars, instead of throwing them away, which is the usual fate, will treat them with more deference on account of the imposing “Then, are beginning to get in their work. No doubt the aver- age citizen will rather sniff at the idea of mere stamp eollectors cutting any figure. The facts show that they are regarded as of sufficlent im- portance by the department to form the basis of an official estimate which appears in no less weighty and im- portant document than the annual Call | report of the Postmaster General. In his report Mr. Wanamaker in dis- cussing the estimates for the revenue for the coming year estimates that the sale of these new stamps to col- lectors alone would yield & clear profit to the Government of not less than one million and a half. “As these stamps are never used, of course, the Government does not earn this money, and it may therefore be considered as clear profit, “Mr. A.

He said that it was the in- tention to make an exhibit in Chicago of stamps of every country on the globe. The value of the exhibit, he thought, would be fully $500,000. He said that the common opinion that stamp collectors were mainly confined to school children was a mistaken one. Thousands of dollars were in- vested in collections and some of the leading men in the country were enthusiasts. In his opinion, would be at least 100,000 collectors in this country alone who would buy a complete set of the jubilee stamps. As each set costs about $16, it will be readily seen that the department es- timate is not out of the way.” The Bureau of Engraving and Printing has completed the manu- facture of the new Philippines series, but no formal announcement has been made as to when the first-day sale will be held. Sets will be available at face value ($6.67) at the office of the Philippine trade commissioner, 928 Barr Build- ing, immediately after official release in Manila. Mexico has three new stamps, de- picting an Indian with an extended bow and arrow, issued December 1. The values are: 1c, orange; 2c, green, ‘The charity stamps of Belgium, announced several weeks ago, now are available. They run to seven de- nominations—10c to 5fr. The de- sign shows a knight on herseback, and the symbol of the shield in each in- stance is printed in red. Iceland, it is reported, is preparing a new series of stamps to be issued early in 1935. Mexico is discontinuing official stamps. Automatic franking ma- chines are being installed in Govern- ment departments. San Marino will have a commemo- rative set for the Fascist movement.

The message reached Balfimore, about 40 miles away, at 2 pm Swift relays carried it to Philadephia by 8 p.m. and to New York by 2 o'clock the next morn- ing. The 225 miles between Wash- and New York had been cov- ered in 13 hours and 40 minutes.’ Prance uses the overprint “Colis Postaux” to denote “parcel post.” Charles F. Anderson, en route to Little America to straighten out the tangle there, still is a Post Office De- partment employe, but it is under- stood that the expenses of his trip are being paid by the Byrd Expedi- tion. A reader insists that Ludwig von Holberg was a Norwegian, not a Dane. Lippincott’s Biographical Dictionary speaks of him as “the founder of the Danish theater and the first Danish author who excelled in hu- morous and satirical compositions’ the Encyclopedia Britannica calls him “the founder of Danish literature and the greatest of Danish authors’ and the Encyclopaedia Americana de- scribes him as “the greatest of Danish authors and the founder of its (sic) literature.” But all authorities agree that he'was born at Bergen, Norway, December 3, 1684. Hence the stamps issued in homage to him by the post office of Norway. Perhaps Denmark now will follow its neighbor’s example. Gerard Ten Eyck Beeckman is at Danville, Va., for the Yuletide season. ‘The late A. O. Jeffry bequeathed his stamps to the Western University Gerard Beeckman Says Philately Is Prospering Text of First of a Series of Short Articles for “Stamps Magazine.” A recent advertisement begins: “Four million new collectors—hun- dreds of new stamp dealers”—which causes me to stop and ponder. Just where is philately headed? Whether or not these figures are correct is a point for argument and matters little, but they will serve as a basis for a few random thoughts. ‘There is not the slightest doubt that the army of stamp collectors has been tremendously increased in the past few years to the point where it is es- timated that there are from 10,000,000 to 12,000,000 of them in the country today. Many will fall by the way- side; some will hang on in a hap- hazard fashion and others will become real philatelists. ‘What are the new recruits to the philatelic fold collecting?

However, the new deal in philately is producing & run-around—one might almost call it & merry-go-round.

Marion Alice Lancaster, 9 years old, a pupil at the Oyster School, yester- day was awarded first prize in The Star’s Christmas essay contest. Her letter on “Why I Know There Is a Santa Claus” was considered the best in nearly 1,000 submitted. But Marion must be especially hap- py because this is the second time year that she has had a prize-: g experience. She won the philatelic playlet contest conducted by the jun- jor department of Stamps Magazine, New York, last Pebruary. It would seem that there is some- thing in the argument that stamp collecting has an educational value. The Washington Stamp Club of the Air will have a broadcast meeting from Station WOL Tuesday evening at 6:45, when Mr. Kunze will resume his discussion of the stamps of the Canal Zone. At last week’s meeting Mr. Kunze indorsed the plan for a museum of American history. “We have collec- tions of museum material,” he said, “and in all museums we have sections dedicated to American history, but no- where do we seem to have museums for history as a national institution. And yet to forget, to overlook or not to know our yesteryears is to lose an experience of real human interest. How better could we retain the all- too-readily forgotten days but a few years past than by erecting a mu- seum dedicated to American history alone?” ‘The philatelic aspect of the plan, Mr. Kunze explained, interested him particularly. He gave an outline ahowmg how American history could be illustrated in a properly arranged display of United States stamps. The next meeting of the Collectors’ Club, Branch 5, Society of Philatelic Americans, will be held Tuesday eve- ning, January 8. The Washington Philatelic Society will meet at the Hotel Carlton, Six- teenth street, Wednesday evening at 8. There will be a bourse, and the public is invited. ‘The editor of the Stamp Department of The Star acknowledges holiday greetings received from many readers and reciprocates best wishes for a merry Christmas and a prosperous and happy New Year.
