FOR NEWSPAPER HANDLING. Newspaper readers who have religious

cks because they do not get properly the old

me town paper will be interested in a Wash-

gton dispatch which says :

Expeditious handling of newspapers is

ged on postal employes in a statement by

hn H. Bartlett, new first assistant postmaster-

neral' published today in the postal bulletin.

"Despite repeated instructions fo rthe

pmpt handling of daily newspapers," the

ktement asserts, many complaints are made

delay in the receipt of this class of mail. 'This condition is irritating to subscribers and reusable from a service standpoint. Unless

beived promptly a newspaper has little or no

kvs value and the postal service reaps the

ticisrn for delay. "Postmasters are therefore urged to see it all daily papers, both outgoing and in.coml, are handled immediately on receipt in their

ices to the end that we may have a satisfied

blic and an appreciative press."

NO LONGER AN "EASY MARK." Giving away money that does not belong to

th with the fellow who owns the cash and the aefactor who suddenly finds himself bereft

a source of easy living. That's what hap-

led to the Wilsonian appointees who handed

cash right and left to Europe during and

lowing the war, making Uncle Sam pose

oad as a man of endless resources, and a

iking illustration of the old adage that "a

.it wad- or whatever it is they call a tightwad Europe. Also, the United States, not being arty to the Paris treaty, but having at the ent request of France and England mainled an army on the Rhine to help the allies :e Germany to meet the demands of ' that ity, both France and England call this coun"mercenary" for asking to be paid the cost naintaining this American army in Germany. In other words, the United States has mainled armed forces on the Rhine by virtue of gentleman's agreement" between this counand the allied powers and as an especial or to them. In consideration of the United tes doing this, the allied powers agreed, upon ir part, to see to it, the United States was reurged for the cost of maintaining these ps. This government has had no thought r would be any repudiation of this agreelt upon the part of Great Britain and France il recently, when it became known these nas- in common with other allies, were taking )s that would deprive the United States of i reimbursement. Then it was that the ted States made a formal demand for payit of he costs of maintaining her forces. The argument that she should look to Gerly is piffle, because she has not maintained

her troops on the Rhine at the request of Ger many and has no agreement with Germany concerning such occupation. For Great Britain, France and other, allies now to claim the United States is not entitled to reimbursement because she did not sign the treaty of Versailles is plain falsificaiion Of the facts, in a very disreputable effort to repudiate an honest agreement made at their request for the purpose of protecting their interests. In short, Uncle Sam being no longer an "easy mark" is now called hard names by the very folks who have lived largely on his bounty the past few years.

STARS OF "MILLION DOLLAR MYSTERY"

SEPARATE AND SURPRISE HOLLYWOOD

HOW FLEETING IS TIME. In more than 400 years of this country's history but two Americans have attained an eminence wherein the anniversaries of their births have to an extent become holidays and even these are observed only in a limited way and not at all in keeping with the celebration of the Fourth of July. The natal day of others may at times have a much restricted observance but aside from Washington and Lincoln there is no cessation from ordinary occupations in honor of the events. As a people, Americans are sparing in giving time to recounting what others have wrought. Perhaps we are too busy with the living to stop to reflect on the deeds of those who have passed away, though there is much to be learned from the lives of those who became conspicuous because of the positions they filled. Onewho attains the presidency is supposed to have secured fame but that fame is fleeting as are all things earthly. Aside from the two presidents mentioned but few could name the birthdays of any of the others. A few days ago recurred the anniversary of the birth of Grover Cleveland, yet, but for the fact that one or two newspapers mentioned it, it would have passed entirely unnoticed. But Grover Cleveland's birthday is unobserved by the party he led to victory." He is forgotten by those who once hailed him as chief. They go back to Andrew Jackson or Thomas Jefferson when they seek a patron saint, though both probably would not be more in sympathy with the modern Democracy than was Grover Cleveland. Grover Cleveland filled a worthy place- but those who might be expected to revere him memory have forgotten him. The lesson of the instance lies in that fame is evanescent,

s s

that few are great enough to remain men's minds after they pass away.

RECOGNIZING OBREGON. Personal exchanges between Presidents Harding and Obregon are reported to be paving the way for recognition of the Mexican government. The hitch is said to be the same as when the Harding administration came in, the obtaining of a pledge from Mexico for the protecton of American interests there. This means, in effect, assurance that American concessions will not be upset and it seems that Obregon is now prepared to comply. Obregon has always been understood to be personally friendly to America and it was assumed that his supporters were out of sympathy with the radical policies which Carranza championed and which American investors feared might lead to cancellation or confiscation of their concessions under the assertion of national ownership in the Mexican constitution. It is probable that Obregon has had to bide his time lest a too sudden reversal of the Carranza policy give a handle to the opposition to start another revolution. But sufficient time seems to have elapsed to show that Obregon is almost as firmly seated as was the elder Diaz during his unchallenged years of dictatorship. Occasional outbreaks are quickly suppressed and the authority of the Obregon administration has been growing day by day. The resumption of relations with Washington and the other powers, which have been awaiting our action, would greatly strengthen the Mexican administration in its efforts to mantain a stable government.
