INJUSTICE.
The post office is the one branch of
the Government service with which
everybody is directly eonceraed. It is
the people’s business, and its patrons
payfor its conduct in postage, the
rates being fixed by Congress. The
postmasters in’the small communities
of the country ai‘e known as fourth
class. There are about 36,000 of them.
They are not paid salaries, like all
other Government employees; their
compensation is based upon percent
ages of the value of stamps cancelled
on matter mailed out from their of
fices. The incoming mail is many
times greater than the outgoing, and
makes the great bulk of the post
masters work, but they receive no pay
for its handling.
A singular condition exists in this
branch of the service. The fourth
class postmaster is required to fur
nish quarters for the office,’ heat and
light it, and buy the necessary equip
ment. From a survey of the country,
the National League of District Post
masters ascertained that 21.8 per cent
of the compensation of the fourth
class postmasters is expended for
these items. A bill is now before
Congress that provides for the pay
ment yearly of an amount equal to
20 per cent of their compensation as
allcwenee for rent, fuel, light and
equipment.
The fourth class postmasters claim
that it is an injustice to require them
to donate, out of their very meager
salaries, the things necessary to con
duct the Government’s business. The
people living in small communities
are entitled -to good postal service.
Few, if any, know the conditions un
der which this sevice ig rendered. The
salaries of these range from a few
dollars up to $l,lOO a year. When
21.8 per cent is deducted from this
for the upkeep of the offices, it ap
pears that the Government is not
dealing justly with the rural com
munities.
Congress alone can remedy this,
and the National League of District
Postnfasters is urging that august
body to enact the bill now before it.
The postmasters are appealing to the
public to ask their Senators and Con
gressmen to enact this bill. Rural
carriers are now given an allowance
of 4 cents a mile for equipment main
tenance. Granting the fourth class
postmasters this allowance would on
ly restore to them what they have
already spent to maintain postal ser
vice in rural communities.
The bill now before the House Post
Office Committee is known as H. R.
4040. The postmasters would appre
ciate any help the public may give
them.

FINDS WAY TO AVOID
MUSCLE-LAMENESS
Athlete has simple method of
keeping in perfect form
Athletes and trainers know how pain
ful and disabling muscle-lameness can
be. And they, more than almost any
one else, can tell you the best way to
overcome it.
“In my training work as an ath
lete,” writes Frank B. Conover, of
175 South St., Jersey City, N. J., “I
have used Sloan’s Liniment for the
past five years and found it most effec
tive for soreness caused by vigorous
exercise. Also an incomparable rem
edy for stiff neck.”
It is marvelous how ache and stiff
ness in lame muscles yield to th~
magic of Sloan’s. Just a little patted
on lightly and healing new blood
tingles through the hurt place.
Away go “fatigue-poisons.” Sore
muscles limber up and stop aching.
Get a bottle today and have it on
hand. All druggists—3s cents.

THERE is no question about the
way motorists have accepted Pan-

The letter quoted above is typical. Hun
dreds of people write the story of Pan-
Am success—more miles per gallon...
honest service ... increased business
for Pan-Ant dealers.
One reason why people-prefer Pan-
Am is that they knoiv they are taking
no chances at a Pan-Am station. They
know that every Pan-Am dealer has
been investigated and found trust
This better gasoline costs no more than
the ordinary kind. And people know they

worthy in all his business conduct..,
else he could not sell from the cream
colored pump. They know that every
gallon is four full quarts and that it
is Pan-Am.
Then, too, the genuine concern Pan-
Am dealers show in the best interests
of their customers has much to do
with it.
You will appreciate these things. There
is a Pan-Am pump near you . . . and
this better gasoline costs no more than
the ordinary kind.
