PCSTAL DEFICIT REDUCTION FOR FISCAL YEAR $11,5W.0M.‘ Tremendous Saving Made Without | Curtailment of Facilities in Any | Direction. I | Washington, Oct. “gures, the compilation of which was completed at the postoffice department today, show | that the exact reduction of the postal | icit during the fiscal vear ended | June 30 last was $11,600,000. The de- | ficit* of the pravious fiscal year was | 17,600,000, so that in one year the de- it was brought down to $6,100,000. In commenting tonight upon the sav- | ing of $11,500.000 last yeur, Postmaster | General Hitcheock said “This tremendous saving was made without the curtailment of the postal facilities in any direction. On the| contrary, during the year there were many important extensions of such facilities. In eliminating wasteful ex- | penditures the department has beer | exceedingly careful not to hamper in | any way the constant development of the postal service required to meet the increasing business needs of the coun- try. “In a word, the department’s policy to extend the service as rapidly as s warranted by increasing population and to accomplish its savings, not by the curtailment of postal facilities, but by handling in a more systematic and | bu 1eselike manner (he constan ex-. vanding volume of the mails.” The (ables prepared indicate ~that | more than 1,500 new postoffices, with | the necessary officers. employes and tablished during the fiscal year, while great extensions were made in the rural delivery routes, 516 new routes with a total mileage of 235 miles being put into operation.

The railway mail aerv was strengtl by the appointment of about 750 new | employes. The aggregate sularies of | new employes appointed the | year from the civil servics lists exceed | $2.000,000.

Salaries of postoffice clerks were ad- /| vanced in the aggregate $1,750,000, | while the letter carriers’ salaries were increased $1.226,000. Railway mail clerks received increases amounting to almost* $250,000. Mr. Hitchcock explained that all in- reases were based upon a system o efficiency ratings, adopted by the de- | partment a little more than a year | ""*T balteve,” he added, “that the high- er standard of efficiency secured by a proper application of this policy is cer- tain to justify the resulting increace in expenses.

The ciothing of the Eskimo baby is often very scanty. In fact, one occa- sionally sees a baby being carried in its mother’s hood with only a cotton shirt on, despite the fact that the ther- mometer registers 20° degrees below zero. The mother's hood is the baby's cradle. Being made of seal or deer skin, it is werm and wind proof. The infant also has the bepefit of the heat of ite wother's body and is out of harm’s way. If it were laid fn a bas- ket cradle in the tent it would be very much in the way and would always be in danger of falllng a prey to the wolfish Eskimo dogs that prowl round the door by day and night, ever ready to plek up a dainty morsel. — Wide ‘World Magazine.
