Reconstruction Task
Vigorously Carried On
By the Administration
Nation's Leaders Not to Be Deterred by
Demagogic Clatter, Says Post
master Work.
WASHINGTON, June 26 Postmaster
Genera) Hubert Work, in addressing the
Pennsylvania state convention of post
masters at Wilkes Barr, took occaiion
to call attention to some of the out
standing accomplishments of the pre
sent administration, in addition to the
constructive work which has been done
by the Postoffice department itself. In
commenting upon tre work done by the
administration since it came into power
I'ostmaster General Work said:
' e have been so busy down in Wash.
ington struggling in the mire of our in
heritance that we have had no time and
little inclination to answer criticism.
Like the man whose house is afire, we
hove been so busy putting out the blaze
that we haven't had time to explain the
cause of the fire. The fact remains,
however, that our greatest troubles are
those of inheritance and not the result
of our own acts.
"President Harding's administration
came into control pledged to install bus
iness methods in government, and the
achievement of this objective is the out
standing accomplishment of the execu
tive branch thus far. Economy in the
handling of government funds after the
lavish expenditures of previuos years,
which reached the high water mark of
J27,0u0,0O0,0OO in 19 la, became a neces
sity. "In 1920 the expenditures were re
duced to 18,500.000,(100 by the cessation
of the war and the economy of a Repub
lican Congress; in 1921 business meth
ods further reduced the operating ap
propriations to $4,750,000,000, and for
the fiscal year about to close it has been
brought down to 13,909,000,000, and we
are not through yet.
"The establishment of a budget sys
tem alone, which had been repudiated
by the Democratic party, has already
saved more than $1,000,000,000 of the
people's money.
"The number of government employes
has been reduced by over 65,000 since
January, 1921.
"As a result of business econamies
Liberty bonds, which at low ebb had
fallen off more than 15 points, are now
selling at par.
"The Veterans' bureau has been re
organized, and $500,000,000 is being ex
pended this year for the relief of ex
service men.
"The farmer has benefited by the
emergency tariff law, and the people
generally have already found their tax
es reduced.
"Our military and naval expenditures
have been cut to the bone, and our for
eign relations, which were sadly mud
dled following the armistice, hsve been
gradually settled in a dignified manner.
The arms conference promises to be one
of the greatest achievements of history.
"The work of readjustment has been
going steadily forward. It is no easy
task for any political party to bring
order out of the aftermath of the war,
but it is significant that this task fell
upon the Republican party. It is not
the first time that it has had to assume
the role of business doctor following a
Democratic administration, and that we
have been successful thus far is reflect
ed in the business revival which is
sweeping over the country, indicating
that we as a people are on the eve of a
most prosperous period.
"The copy books tell us that patience
and hard work will overcome any obsta
cle, and this is the theory which is act
uating the government officials in
Washington To paraphrase the langu
age of Kipling, they are keeping their
heads when some of those about them
of opposite political faith are losing
! theirs, and blaming it on them. The
I sensible people of the country will not
be beguiled by the false issues raised
By the critics lor election purposes,
whose effort to befog the real issue is
pitiable in face of the (act that on the
leaders of their party rests the respon
sibility for the very conditions about
which they complain, and the additional
fact that they too are sworn officers of
the government charged with aiding and
not to destroy the confidence of the
people in their own government of their
own choosing, and maintained for them.
"The president's cabinet ia composed
of (lain men who have succeeded eaen
in his own place in the world. It has
b;cn said of them that their industry
is phenomenal and their indifference to
public officials who regard their re-election
to be in doubt may not feel it to
their interest to attack the administra
tion, through its servants, unjustly."
