Charged With Neglect of

General Hitchcock hag built up by

tor an . Investigation by the DemoI
cratlc House The Democrats have a
well-laid plan to probe d*ep Into the
I machine-building activities of the
I Postmaster-General.
I . vlt la admitted that there la no one
department in the Government servI
ice where the searchlight could be
I turned on with more tucceee than In
the Postofflce department.
For many months there have been
reliable ieports that Mr. Hitchcock
had been quietly laying hla plana for
; the captpre of delegate* for Taft,
I particularly to the 86uth. The- Demo
crau want to know: j
Whether postmasters throughout
the country, first class and otherwise, j
use giving proper attention to their j
CHeu^.
Whether It Is not a fact that many
of these, postmasters accept their I
trust from the government as a "aide!
line" to be conducted in connection
with private business
Whether It Is true that many postmasters
spend much of their time
campaigning tor the Republican
1 cause of the detriment of official
business of their cfflees.
For what reasons various poet,
offices have been discontinued, or
moved, upon order from Washington
without consulting the wishes of the
' patrons of the office.
' House Democrats beneve that
right under the eyes of the House the
wily Postmaster-General is putting in
order a political machine the full
force of which will be felt when the
Btandpat Republicans try to renominate
Taft for President.
It Is also ciauied that the postal1
1 service Is being crippled. .It Is claim-.

d Influencing Political Apvate
businesses that require all tbelr
time. It is openlj cbarxed that in
every State there are men who hold
commissions as postmasters at Important
offices who spend practically
no time at their duties. The real
work is left to subordinates, while
the politician postmasters, secure in . ',.'rtS?
the knowledge that they can deliver
a certain number' of delegates when
the time arrives, content themselves
with looking after other matters.
"Ho* much time do these postmasters
spend upon personal yaer. :'

the questions f want J

"The time has come for au Invest tgation,"
Mid a prominent Democrat
Congressman the other day. "I haw
been watching conditions in my own
state and I will soon have some Important
revelations to make. 1 know
that there are postmasters in my
state who are seldom seen about tinoffices.
They are off in charge or
campaigns, rounding up votes, ranking
political arguments, or laying
plans for the future. Their work 1* *
left to subordinates.
"I do not know just to what extent
this political machine has progressed
nor the reason for the ? ?9
strange things that are happening,
but one of the most important things
that the House should turn its attention
to now 1b an investigation of
this peculiar state of affairs. .
"1 have ascertained that many
! postmasters have become chairmen
I of political organisations in their

I In conjunction with and because of
their political influence, and that this
has an Influence In the appointments
