LONG SERVICE NOT COUNTED IN HARDING ORDER Friends of Charles Byfield See Little Hope for Postmastership.

II It were not *o apparent that tha Republican national administration Intends to follow political expediency instead of cirll service regulations in tha choice of a successor for Robert E. Springtteen, postmaster of ludianapolti, I another candidate, who would give dan- | peroiia opposition to those who already are in the race, so far as qualifications ere concerned, might come forward. In faet. some of the friends of Charles Byfield. assistant postmaster, have been trying to discover something in the executive order of President Harding con- j cerning the filling of vacancies in first- | class postmasterships which would give them a thread upon which to base a claim for his appointment, * But Ur. Byfield is a Democrat. The appointment could be given to him upon the ground of his twenty-five years in the postal aervice If the Republican administration cared to recognize it. The executive order does not say, however, that long experience shall be the qualification for the appointment. It la so worded as to lead the Republlcana win •re after the Job to go after It Just as they try to land any other political ap-

pointment. The section of the executive order which friends of the assistant postmaster say throws the appointment open to him, even without undergoing examination by the civil service commission as other candidates must, reads as follows: „ -‘lf such vacancy is not filled by nomination of some person within the competitive classified civil service who has the required qualifications, then the Postmaster General shall certify the faet to the Civil Service Commission which shall forthwith hold an open competitive examination to test the fitness of applicants to fill such vacancy, etc ”

Mr Bvfleld Is in the “competitive classified service." He was appointed to the postal service in October. 1885. He was promoted to superintendent of the money order division of the Indianapolis postoffice April 10, 1898, and to assistant postmaster by Mr. Springsteen on Sept. 1, IMS. He has held the latter rank The assistant postmaster has much of I the responsibility of the postmaster upon L hi* shoulders.

Bis gnouiaer*. . . [ With Edward J. Robison bettered to b* Eliminated because he is over the 85 Sear age limit prescribed in the Presi ft n t'g order, three prominent candidates left They are Robert H. Bryson, controller; John Salter and Richard Mr Bryson, is backed by the wing of the Republican while Mr. Salter is understood to ||M the backing of men who worked nomination of Mr. Robison for PHaycr and some of the influential men in "he forces of Samuel Lewis Shank. Republican candidate for mayor. Friends of Mr. Bryson soy that although he is a member of the official family of Mayor Charles W. Jewett bitter enemy of Mr. ghank. some of the Shank workers would not object to the city controller landing the Federal plum. Salters candidsey was espoused by Mr. •Robison during the primary campaign. Then Mr. Shank went to Washington and demanded that Mr. Robison be appointed. Someone discovered that Mr Robison was over the age limit and Salter s hopes were revived again.

Mr. Bryson la understood to consider Salter bis chief opponent, although other candidates who might prove strong may make application when the civil aervice commission announces the examination. So far the Postofftee Department has not certified a vacancy in the Indianapolia office to the civil service commission. No preparations for the examination will be hsld until such certification Is made. Politiciana who have talked with Hoosiers holding high positions at Washington believe that, contrary to local reports, the quls* will be held and the appointment i mule a short time after Mr. Springsteen's I term expires, which is on July 21.

Rooms, doors, window*,*^iculptural accessories Indoors and oufcr special endowments for special needs/and many other things come to min/’’ Afnother writer for the sama organizatiewn has this to say about community memorials: l“How shall we pay tribute to our he-

roes of this war? It has been well said thiat the erection of statues and shafts, arjehes and mausoleums rightly belong to thle old era of struggle for physical supremacy. Certain It la that such monuments, even.- the best of them, fail to ■yxnbolise the idea of service to humanity anffl the idea of brotherhood we now Seek to So little progress has made in memorial art, moreover, whefc compared with progress In other fields, that should the thousands of communities now turning their attention to the--' provision of memorials decide upon this type, the majority of those erected wotald fail of their lofty purpose, and would in the main serve only to tncrease the amount of uninspiring public art which remains from other wars.

“Does not some form of memorial btiilding offer a better way of keeping •live our sacred memories, of perpetuating the principles which animated the sacrifices of our boys? A community house, a home of democracy, a physical center In and out of which may flow aall the vital currents of community life would not that constitute a Tiving memorial’ suitable to our present-day ideas? It could fitly be dedicated to the use of the returning men as well as to the memory of those who will not return.

“Statistics show that 96 per cent of all the boys who went overseas have come back to us. To these and to the civilians the community house would furnish a pprmament means of conserving the fine ‘get together' spirit that was so apparent in the social buildings and buts within the ramps, and in the service clubs, canteens, and other meeting places wherever uniformed men 'went to town.' The war has taught soldiers and civilians tt- meaning of organised friendliness. The man who has resumed his civilian chthlng and activities will not cease to appreciate or expect friendly service, nor w!'.l those civilians in every community wT# labored so hard to re-establish home tics for uniformed men be willing to go ba-,$ to the old, narrow, routine of selfcejjpred Interest.”
