vision of Postal Savings
System of the U. S.
(By The Auocliited FreM.)
Sullivan, Ind., July 3. A billion
dollars which should be in circu
lation to assist the coming indus
trial revival, is being hoarded in
American stockings. Will H. Hays,
postmaster general, declared today
In announcing plans for revision Of
the postal savings system to make
it more attractive to potential de
positors. The present treatment of deposit
ors in the postal savings bank, he
said tonight after conferences,
amounts "almost to fraud," whlK
the government has profiteered L

sum, in the last year alone, of
720.000. he added. ,iTJ

which, will be submitted
gress. has been approved b'&
ei's east and middle wan .
Haya assured the banker' ie
had no intention of ent nto
competition with privs mgs
banks, but hoped only f w i the
postal bank a feeder ot ,lshed
institutions. He pointed fcc that
doubling the present interest rate
would still leave It below the aver
age paid by the savings banks. .
Private banks cannot hope to
reach the vast hoarded wealth
which offers a particular field for
postal savings expansion, Vr. Hays
explained. Seventy per cent of the
present 508,000 depositors are of
foreign extraction, he said, and
they will trust no one but the
United States government.
Hays Outlines Plan.
Mr. Hays' plan is as follows:
1 Increase the Interest rate
from two to three per cent
2 Payment of interest on de
posits held less than one year.
3 Removal of the restriction
against depositors under ten years
of age.
4 Provision for Joint and trust
funds.
6 Establishment of postal sav
ings banks in B0. 000 postofflces in
stead of 6,300.
6 Compensation for fourth
class postmasters on the basis Of
the deposits they handle.
7 Redeposit of the funds in
local banks with more liberal
qualification rules for such de
positories. 8 An enlarged board of. direct
ors, including representative of
the federal reserve bank and pos
sibly one or more civilians.
Ixit of Business Is Sick. .
"There la a lot of business in
this country, that la really sick, still
staggering under the shell shock
of war and the debauch of extrav
agance," Mr. Hays said, "but there
Is a good deal more, that is merely
malingering. There is the greatest
era of expansion and prosperity
ahead that the world has ever seen.
Every one knows this and the only
question discussed is when it will
start. Well, it is time to go out
and meet it. This we propose to
help to do.
"The postal savings system must
be reformed. With 161,000 000 on
deposit last year from 608,000 de
positors and with the law provid
ing that 2 per cent interest be
paid, the government, because of
the system, paid less than one-half
per cent interest to those deposi
tors and by depositing at 2 1-2 per
cent interest made a net profit
over all interest payments and- ex
penses of $1, 720,000.
Was Sheer profiteering.
"This was sheer profiteering.
The certificates issued unequivo
cally pledge 2 per cent interest and
fail to say Anything whatever about
no interest being paid If the do
posits are not left for a year. The
postal savings has not scratched
the surface, notwithstanding the
magnificent conception of public
duty that inspired its founding.
"We do not want depositors from
savings banks, but there Is a tre
mendous ..jded wealth in this
country, estimated by many well
informed at a billion dollars, which

tlon and at Yorktown achieved the
vlotjry which mide the vision en
accomplished fact.
"Over the Alleghanies, across the
Mississippi and the westward prai
ries, beyond the Rockies and to
the waters of the Paciflo was car
ried the national frontier by those
who marched onward in fulfill
ment of the national vision. This
vision of a united country tri
umphed in civil war over ths vision
of a divided one. .
"With the world aflame with the
conflict between the forces of op
pression and autocracy from which
our colonists fought themselves
free and the forces of democracy
and freedom which the victory of
1783 established in. the world, we
crossed the ocean to fight again.
The vision which first revealed it
self on these shores one hundred
and forty-five years ago found a
rebirth in the victory of 1918. '
"While proclalminar the effect.
let us not overlook the same cause
which made possible ths world
triumph of the vision of American
ideals and Institutions of govern
ment. Th cause lies in the fact
that in the beginning our colonists
were inspired by a sense of indi

to tht state. What was true then is
true today. Each of us, as individ

Miss Elizabeth Boyd of
Kansas City, Fitting Her
self to Become a Depart
ment Store Official.
(Dy The Amoolalml . I'rrsa.)
Kansas City, Mo, July 3. With
the idea of some day becoming a
department store - offlclul. Miss
! Elizabeth Boyd, a ' recoht Smith
i college graduate. Is working be-
hind the counter in a down town
store here, selling everything from
frying pans to hooks and eyes.
It's hard work, Miss Boyd says,
but thoroughly interesting. And
she is learning not only the stock
and the business itself, but the hu
man side of it as well, for none of
her associates knows that she Is
there on any different footing than
they are.
"Some of them were inclined not
to have much to do with me at
first," Miss Boyd, "but I found the
road to their hearts when I began
reading the girls' palms for them
during the lunch hour. And now I
have more heart problems to solve
than Laura Jean Libby." .
Another discovery Miss Boyd
has made is that "honey" is the
most overworked word in the Eng
lish language in department store
circles. All the girls In her store
"honey" each other and "honey"
the customers, and a considerable
number of the customers "honey"
them in return.
"It is perfectly amazing," she
said, "to discover how many of
them In this place have been mar
ried and divorced before they ar
19. Love affairs are the one great
topio of conversation and Interest
among many department store
girls here, and the fact that one
husband has turned out badly is no
discouragement. -
"I like them, and have made a
lot of friends but you'd be -surprised
to find how few I know
have any idea of staying with their
work or rising in it. With a whole
lot of them, it's simply a matter
of holding a Job until they can get
married, or until they can save up
money endugh to get a divorce, so
it seems.
"Fresh floor walkers? Tea,
they're not entirely fiction. I've
c me across a couple that my boss
seemed much surprised to hear
about. But of course, the girls
wouldn't tell her.
"In a few weeks I've certainly
learned a lot I never did in col
lege, and it seems to me it ought
to make me a lot more valuable in
a bigger Job, when I'm ready for
it, to know what Nellie at the rib
bon counter thinks about her em
ployers and the world in general."

It is figured that Dempsey

ALLIANCE NOT
AT U. S.
IS ASSERTION
OF JAP ENVfl
Baron Shidehara, in a For
mal Statement, Discusses
the Proposed Anglo-Jap-anese
Agrsement,
NEGOTIATIONS" ARE
NOT YET UNDER WA
Campaign Is at Work Mis
representing the Possible
Effect of the Pact on
America, He Claims,
(By The Aaanrlntrd Fren.)
Washington, July 3.---Baroi,
Shidehara, the Japanese ambassa
dor, in a formal statement today
discussing the Anglo-Japanese al
liance, declared that "by no
stretch of the imagination can it
honestly be stated that the alliance
was ever designed or remotely in
tended as an instrument of hostil
ity or even defense against the
United States.
"Negotiations looking to the re
newal of the Anglo-Japanese al
liance have not yet begun," says
the statement. "In the meantime,
a campaign seems to be actively at
work misrepresenting the possible
effect of the alliance upon the
United States.
Has Twice Ilcen Renewed.
"The Anglo-Japanese alliance in
Its history of nearly twenty years
has twice been renewed. In each
case, the fundamental policy un
derlying it has remained unchang
ed. It aims permanently to pre
serve and to consolidate the gen
eral peace of the far east. Tho
original agreement of 1902, in line
with that policy, was calculated to
localize any war which might be
forced upon either contracting par
ty In defenso of its defined inter
cats or vital security. It was made
when China was under menace of
foreign aggression; and the United
States showing the utmost friendli
ness toward both parties to the al
liance viewed the compact with
sympathy and approval.
Was Revised in 1903.
"In 1905, when tho alliance was
renewed and revised to meet the
changed conditions that followed
the Russo-Japanese war, no
thought occurred to the statesmen
of either country that the United
States might possibly become a
potential enemy of either, and for
that reason, and that alone, no
provision waa inserted taking so
remote a contingency into consid
eration. Again Revised in 1911.
"i'hd'atliah'ce w.ls again revised
In 1911 and Article IV of tlfcu
agreement contains the following
provisions:
" 'Should either high contracting
party conclude a treaty of general
arbitration with a third power, it
is agreed that nothing in this agree
ment shall entail upon such con
tracting party- an obligation to go
to war with the power with whom
such treaty of arbitration is in
force.' ' -
"This provision, in Its relation
to the United States, has often
been made the subject of conflict
ing interpretations. To a practical
mind, however, the circumstances
which led up to its inclusion should
at once serve to remove all doubt
regarding its significance. The
Idea of revising the alliance in
1911 was conceived primarily with
the object of facilitating the nego
tiations which were known to be
then in progress between London
and Washington for the conclusion
of a general arbitration treaty.
Neither Japan nor Great Britain,
has ever contemplated under the
alliance, anv casus foederis preju
dicial or Inimical to the Interest of
the United States; and any plan
designed to remove the possibility
of an armed conflict between the
United States and Great Britain
was of course agreeable to Japan.
Same Policy Inspires Japan.
"It was in pursuance of this
policy that the quoted provision of
Article IV was adopted.
"The same policy inspires Japan
as strongly today as ever before. It
has not, in any degree, been ef
fected by the fact that the Anglo
American general arbitration treaty
failed to secure the approval of the
United States senate; i nor la it
practically necessary to carry on
the legal analysis of the question as
to whether the peace commission
treaty, signed and ratified by the
United States and Great Britain In
1914, should be construed as a gen
eral arbitration treaty within the
meaning of Article IV of the Anglo
Japanese agreement.
Explains Japan's Attitude.
"For, apart from that question,
it was already well understood at
the time of negotiating the existing
agreement that the alliance should
(Continued on Page Two.)
the American nation stood up full
bent upon the defense of another
great and noble cause: The lib
erty of i world.
"Today before the world, on
this great anniversary. Is for him
who has the terrible responsibility
of leading into the battle the
8,000,000 soldiers, to him commit
ted by the allies and associated
governments, one more opportuni
ty which he eagerly embraces to
pay homage to the American army,
to Its chiefs, to its soldiers.
"What was the American share
In the strife for victory? Two sets
of figures will give its measure.
In April, 1917, when the United
States declared W:.r upon -Germany,
the American army had
9,500 officers and 350,000 men.
Eighteen months later, at the time
of the armistice, she had mors
than 180,000 officers and 3,600,
000 men.
