i THE BE J DI EMBER 14, 19 POSTAL DEFICIT IS ELEVEN MILLIONS Postmaster General's War Losses and Raise in Salaries More Than Offset Economies. PARCELS BUSINESS INCREASES WASHINGTON, Dec. 13, — Post- master General Burleson's annual report, made public today, says the Buropean war has cost the American postal service $21,000,000 but that sconomies of administration have re- duced the audited deficit to a little more: than $11,000,000 for the fiscal year which ended last June. Consid- erations of service, the report says, were placed above all others, and notwithstanding adverse revenue con- ditions, expansion and improvement of postal facilities continued. Had it not been for economical reorgan- ization begun before the war started and continued since, the postmaster general says the audited deficit would have been at least $24,000,- 000. Of the total deficit, however, his ‘analysis of the department’s fi- nances declares that all but a little more than $300,000 was the result of Increases of postal salaries and additional railway mail pay required by law. Chlet among recommendations to con- gress are a renewal of previovs proposals for a change from the welght to the space basis of fixing pay to the rallroads for carrying mail; a renewal of recom- mendations for government ownership of telegraph and telephones; removal of the four-pound limit on first class mall, and the adoption of more liberal limitations on the welght and insurance of parcel post packages. Expansion of Parcel Post. The greatest expansion in the post- office, the report shows, was in the par- cel post. Statistics gathered from fifty principal postoffices show it to be half of all the postal business, and that more than '1,000,000,00 parcels are being trans-| ported every year. Before the parce' post was established not more than one- fourth that number were handled. The amount of postage collected from that source approached $2,000,000 during’ the first fifteen days of October this year alone. While the war has crippled the money order system, it has boomed the postal gavicgs banks. The number of depositors and the amount deposited exceeded any year since the banks were established. More than a half-million depositors were on the books at the end of June, 1915, a gain of 8 per cent for the year, and they had on deposit nearly $66,000,000, & gain. of more than b0 per cent. The increases in deposits in some citles was remark- able. They increased in New York, 199 per cent; Bridgeport, Conn., 183 per cent; Brooklyn, 167 per cent; Paterson, 162 per nt; Jersey City, 122 per cent; Detroit, 112 per cent. Other cities showed gains ranging from 60 to 100 per cent. Of all the depositors more than 88 per cent were forelgn born and they had more than 7L per cent of the total deposits. The figures are represented as showing plainly the attraction of the postal banks to, the immigrant. Fraudulent Concerns Barred, The activitles of the Postoffice depart- ment in suppressing fraudulent use of the malls are unabated. The report says the department is working in close co-opera- tion with thoge interested in purifying advertising columns, and that during the year fifty-seven concerns or persons were bantshed from the mails, and 1,90 lot- teries were barred out. The subject of rallway mall pay, which is one of spirited controversy between the Postoffice department and the rallways, the postmaster general's report treats at length. It describes the situation as acute and urgent, pressing for immediate ad- justment, but expresses regret that the rallway mail reorganization bill was killed In the last congress. Recruits in Steady Stream in London LONDON, Dec. 13.—Scenes around the recruiting offices in London and other cities in Great Britaln, were almost as brigk today as at any time Guring the weak. The extension of time for carry- ing out the earl of Derby's plan of vol- untary enlistment, owing to the inability of the officlals to deal with the men applying for enroliment, was welcomed end from early morning there was & steady stream of recruits at the enroll- ment bureau ALL THINGS WORK OUT IN ACCORD WITH LAWS OF GOD Flliott Holbrook lectured at Theosophi- call hall, suite 701 Bee bullding, Sunday evenjng, using for his subject “The Hier- archy that Governs Humanity." He sald that man, being created in the image of God, everything man does is a faint and imperfect reflection of what fs done in the higher realms. Man's organizations, soclal, industrial, governmental and re- ligious, are but imperfect copies of those above. According to the occult teach- ings there ure seven great Lords which govern humanity and a great and beauti- ful organization that has charge of the evolution of all things. That on earth all things work in accord with ghe laws of God through this same source. That while continents disappear, civilizations and races disappear and change, it is al- ways under the all-sceing eye of God end in accordance with definite law. The war now raging in Burope has the at- tention of none more than His and ite meaning and the result to humanity is fully understood, although we may be Ulind to the real significance of it. DISABLED MINNESOTA NEARING SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, Deec, 13.—The dis- to Decide Just That idiotie Interrogation, “Why is & » spade?’ was finally put up to the United States government for answer today. Jerry B. Sullivan of New York, presi- dent\of the United States General Board of Appralsers, presided over the hear- ings in a court room of the federal bulld- ing. “It is one of the strangest problems that has ever come before the board,” sald Judge Bullivan. The people in the court room made it unanimous. Beside this question, other things that the great throbbing heart of the people have sought to know pale into Insignificance. ‘‘Who struck Bl terson?' and “How old is Ann easy in comparison. The complaint was filed by the Wright & Wilhelmy company, wholesale a- ware dealers, In Omaha. The company imports spades and shovels. Up to last July the spades and shovels came in tree under the section of the tariff act which says that “agricultural imple- ments” shall come in free. Last July Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Peters made a ruling that a spade is an agricultural implement, but a shovel is not. So the poor shovels were torn from Uncle Sam Sends a Judge to Try “Why is a Spade”’ their cousins, the spades, and ordered to pay a 2 per cent ad valorem tariff be- fore they could come into this land of the free and home of the brave. Spades continuel to come in free, being, In the opinion of the astute assistant secretary, ‘agricultural implements. “For,” sald he, 'a spade is used and properly used to spade up the ground, a primary agricultural process. It is use- ful for practically nothing else. But a shovel, why a shovel can be used for anything by anybody. Doctors, lawyers, preachers, cabmen, coal wagon drivers, ashmen and garbage collectors, all use shovels. Everybody uses shovels, but only agriculturists use spades. Therefore a shovel is not an agricul- tural implement. Judge Sullivan will earry back the evi- dence submitted at the hearing to his eight fellow members of the board of appraisers and they will try to decide just what, where and why a spade is. Also the history, development and pres- ent political, soctal and psychological status of the shovel. Judge Sulllvan was accompanied by his secretary, E. Nothiger. He called on T. J. Mahoney and other friends with whom he had dealings when he lived in lowa some years ago. FRICTION IN FORD'S | PEACE EXPEDITION Several Members Threaten to Quit if Resolution Censuring Presi- dent is Adopted. MESSAGES SENT TO MONARCHS ON BOARD STEAMSHIP OSCAR 11, ‘Dec. 13.—(By Wireless.)—A resolution condemning President Wilson’s preparedness policy brought a protest from prominent members of | Henry Ford's peace party last night when it was presented for adoption. The resolution was drawn up by the Rev. Jenkin Jones and the Rev, Charles F. Aked and others, who asked that it be signed by all mem- bers of the party as their platform. More than a dozen members, in- cluding 8. 8. McClure of New York and Judge Ben B, Lindsey of Denvey, refused to sign on the ground that the resolution was unpatriotic. Some of them even threatened to leave the party after it reached Burope if the | proposed platform were put through. Its supporters said the opponents of the resolution failed to understand the spirit of Mr. Ford’s invitation. Messages to Monarchs, An appeal to the rulers of Europe was sent out by wireless today jaddressing individually to each reigning monarch, ‘We come in this timd of trouble not to add to your burdens, but to help 1ift them, not to consider which nations are most to blame for the disaster that has befallen Kurope, but to end the strife, not to intrude ourselves upon your national life and national ideas. but rather with an earnest desire to under- stand them and a heartfealt wish to alg in realizing them, “The love of country for which every day tens of thousands of lives are sacrificed is the same in every land. Your nation like the people of all the other belligerent countries is fighting for its national existence and its best na- tional traditions so there can be no ir- reconcipile differences. Such common ideals surely must afford a basis upon which to establish a magnamanous and honorable peace. “The time has come to stop the blcod- shed, to save the people from further slaughter and the civilization of the worlg from anarchy and ruin. Has not war been tried enough in sixteen months of fighting? Is it not proven that war cannot solve the problem, but that it leads only to loss and misery? Must lives be crushed and wives and mothers Dbereved before we recognize that Europe is bleeding to death and that the grevious wound must be staunched? Sugmests Armistice. “We neutrals are about to join in & conference which shall without delay frame and submit simultaneously to you and all the other belligerent nations proposals as a basis for a discussion leading to the final settlemenf, There- tore we do earnestiy entreat you and the rulers of all the other warring nations to declare an immediate truce. Let the armies stand where they are, Then let the negotiations proceed so that the soldlers may be delivered from another bitter winter in the trencehs and sent back to their labors and their firesides. As there is no other way to end the war except by mediation and discussion, why waste one more precious human life? For the sake of humanity. *(Signed) HENRY FORD." A. W.
