POSTMEN'S HATS GO UP
80 Does Dander of Purchasers When
S $1 Is Added to Price
The high cost of delivering mail xvas
felt by the postmen who bought new
hats this 3 ear.
The same helmets that weie btfflghl
last year for $Lf5 cost $2.75 this year.
Tostmen felt the blow and registered
complaint that if the government wanted
to stop profiteering, a good place to
'begin would be on postme-i's hats.
"The pejslofficc doesn't -Set the price
on hats or for any pait of the uniform
the' men wear," said John 1. Lister.
Assistant postmaster, today. "Hats,
, uet like everything else, have gone up.
Last year you paid ?G or $7 for a pair
of shoes and this year ,xnu pay $0. All
. that the postoffice does Is to ask for
bids on hats, appoint a time when the
bids will be onened, and then select thp
Jojvest bidder."

ucce-sar.v for this country to pit-pure

The- pioblem of bundling tin- siiiut

asserted, formerly it required 00(1 men
to hold down a big dirigible. Now the
task is accomplished by six men.
Tlie problem was solved b.v electing
umsts with gieal icsistiug powers. The
nose of the niieraft is fastened to the
mast and, except in luminal" stoinis, tlie
air liner rides at ease. When storms of
gieat magnitude roll over the landing
places, the liner is cut loose and allowed
to tide out the tempest.
