G—5 m the gain for philately represented in the half-tone pictures. The Govern- ment has recognized the logic of the contention of philatélists that illustra- tions are necessary and desirable. Especially for young collectors, the booklet is a victory for which every- body, seniors and juniors alike, should be grateful. Dr. Thomas P. Martin, assistant chief of the Division of Manuscripts, Library of Congress, was guest of honor and principal speaker at = meeting of the Washington Philatelic Society, Hotel Carlten, Wednesday evening. He discussed the signifi- cance of autograph collecting to the biographer and historian and urged the preservation of important ma- terial intact. The meeting was in charge of Wil- liam M. Stuart, philatelic editor of the Washington Post, who exhibited letters and documents bearing the signatures of Presidents, Postmaster Generals and other notable characters. Alvin R. Meissner, a member of the society, was introduced as the designer of the entire series of Navy “com- memoratives,” and Dr. M. G. Skinner, also a member, was recognized to move a vote of thanks to the Post Office Department for the publication of the illustrated official list of stamps.

From the Australian Stamp Journal the following is quoted, with sincere indorsement: “Our hobby is wide enough to suit every taste and inter- est, but if we convert it into a minia- ture stock exchange we shall be woe- fully abusing its powers for good in the community.” ‘The Beneficial Saving Funds Bank of Philadelphia advertises: “The boy who saves stamps is learning a valu- able lesson. When the habit of saving is taught by encouraging & youthful hobby, it is but a step to the realiza- tion that the easy and practical way to reach any desired financial goal is by making regular deposits.” F.

He will be especiflly grateful for data concerning surcharges. Senator Royad E. Copeland of New York is sponsoring a bill to establish new airmail rates and to provide for the printing of an “air lettergram.” The latter would be in the form of a folded letter-sheet 8'2 by 11 inches, with gummed tab, which would be sold ready to use at 3 cents each.

Pericles, the statesman, Plutarch tells us, one day had to endure a stic- cession of irritating and impertinent heckling that did not end when the orator left for home, for his spiteful little enemy accompanied him back to his door, still pursuing him with gibes and scurrilities. But the great Pericles remained unmoved and un- answering; and as he entered his own gate, quietly said to the porter: “Take & lamp and show that gentleman back to his house.” HELP MEN.

Ickes have been Tequested to attend and to speak at their convenience. All regular sessions of the conference will be open to the public, but a regis- tration fee of $1 will be stipulated to cover expenses of printing the con- ference report, one copy of which will be given to each individual registered. There will be a good-fellowship din= ner Monday evening under the man- | agement of John R. Ewell.

Further details of arrangements will | be announced in the local and national philatelic press from time to time dur- ing the next two weeks. John Colller, commisisoner of In- dian affairs, has added his indorsement of the projected series of Indian stamps to that of Secretary Ickes: “The service is very grateful to those of the stamp collecting community who have brought forward this proposal,” he says. “Although I am not a philatelist, T have noticed from time to time that well-known heroes, states- men and other figures of national im- portance have been shown on our postage stamps. persons came to America the Indian was country. I have always felt that the average citizen does not realize how much honor and credit is due the first Americans. Such a series could, I imagine, include well-known Indian | leaders " the past. native Indian art work, and scenes from the present- day Indian country. Postage stamps of all countries seem to carry a per- sonal message to other lands, and I can think of no finer way to help peo- ple of other countries know more the use of such a series of stamps.” The illustrated edition of the Post Office Department Official Descrip- tion of United States Postage Stamps was something worth waiting for, Such is the verdict of Washington col- | lectors as a class, following the release of the paper-bound copies placed on sale at the office of the Superinten- dent of Documents, Government Printing Office Tuesday. Beautifully executed, the booklet is an excellent example of graphic art, It runs to 119 pages of text and in- cludes unmutilated full-size repro- ductions of every stamp issued from July 1, 1847, to December 31, 1936. A foreword, signed by Postmaster General James A. Farley, reads: “Be- cause of my belief in the values of philately, it is with the utmost pleas- ure that I dedicate to the stamp col- lectors of America this new booklet which contains for the first time re- productions of the postage stamps described therein. It is my sincere hope that the publication of these illustrations will contribute to & wider and more profound study of our postal issues, the designs of which portray the history and accomplishments of our great Nation.” ‘The table of contents begins with a “notice” warning against unau- thorized use of stamp designs, quoting section 150 of the criminal code, re- ferring to Government securities with- out specific mention of stamps. It closes with a summary of Presidents and “other prominent persons” por- trayed in the American philatelic gal- lery, a list of the quantities of com- memorative stamps issued from 1893 onward, a similar table for airmail stamps and for Kansas and Nebraska experimental overprints, a list of plate numbers for all commemorative and airmail productions since the Columbian series. Of course, the booklet does not re- place the specialized United States catalogue. It deals principally with types, not with varieties. No ap- praisals are attempted and no guid- ance for sale or exchange is offered. ‘Watermarks and perforations, as well as minor changes in color, are ignored.

Konwiser, writing in Stamps Magazine for May 29, says: “Washington postmarks appear to be in demand. Several active folks in stampless covers, ‘are after’ Washing- ton, D. C., especially seeking some of the rarer varieties of the early 1800 period. The Collector’s Club Philatel- | ist ran a story on Washington post- marks, illustrating many of the types, in 1929.” C. Robert Kay, stamp editor of the | Associated Press, wires from New York: “Collectors and dealers inter- ested in United States precanceled stamps have fears for the future of their hobby because of the Post Office Department's efforts to prevent re- use of such stamps for postal pur- | poses. “The department is waging cease- less war against fraudulent accummu- lators who ship these stamps back to the cities of origin, regum them and | sell them to precancel permit holders, who use them on mail and defraud | the Government of postal fees. “The practice has become so preva- lent that post office inspectors are | urging that no stamp of a higher value than 2 cents be precanceled. This, they argue, would eliminate the practice by taking the profit out of the illegal business. “Already, postal clerks have been advised to mark with a crayon over high-value precancels used on large packages to prevent their re-use. This practice in fitself ruins many desir- able precancels for collecting pur- poses, because precancel enthusiasts reject stamps s0 marked as defective. dealers in precanceled stamps. This order is a hardship to honorable deal- ers; but they are not complaining because not-so-ethical ilk that obtain permits from small towns, then induce inex- perienced postmasters to sell them precancels for collecting purposes. “Postmasters and clerks are not per- mitted to sell precancels to any one except permit holders, but a permit holder may obtain quantities of de- sirable stamps, soak off the gum and sell them to collectors as if they had been used on mail. This practice, in the trade, is called ‘bath-tubbing,’ be- cause of the standing joke that many collectors soak their stamps in their bath tubs. “Crayoning of high-value pre- cancels will cause these varieties to become increasingly scarce in the fu- ture, and if the proposed regulation to prevent precanceling any stamps higher than 2 cents face value is adopted, few new varieties will be issued for collectors and interest in the hobby may wane Collectors interested in the corona- tion issues of the Crown colonies and the self-governing dominions of the British Empire are advised to act at once. Delay might be expensive. President Roosevelt was personally responsible for the authorization of the Virginia Dare stamp. He gave his assurance of approval to Represent- ative Lindsay C.
