WASHINGTON. Nov. 1. Demo
crats charge that the Poatomcp De
partment under the Harding Ad
ministration is more partisan than
ever before. Instead of following
the plan of President Wilson to
take it out of politics aa far ns
possible. Postmaster General Work
has out-stripped Will H. Hays in
giving it a Republican twist. n
.cently the postal savings depoella
have been gradually going down,
down. This is a reflection on tl.
O. P. prosperity. The more peo
ple work the larger the postal de
posits. For years It ijas been a
custom to make regular, reports
on postal deposits. When they
started dropping the Poatotflce De
partment quit handing out the re
ports. This caused lota of talk.
Today Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Glover "denied that the De
partment wa preserving aecrecy
upon the aubject and declared that
the Information is available t all
times to any rierson, who is inter
ested enough to make inquiry."
That Is a dodge. Mrt Glover
followed this statement with an
effort to blame the WiTson Admin
istration." He said the high water
mark in deposits was reached In
119. As a matter f fact under
the Wilson regime the jvpstal de
posits were above one hundred anil
seventy-seven million dollars,
while they are lean than one hun
dred and thlrty-flve million now.
This is quite a blow to the Repub
licans In labor districts, for most
of the money waa withdrawn bj
working people.
Mrs. Emtlv Newell Blair, Vica
Chalrman of the Democratic Na
tional Committee, appealed to the
women' of the Nation today to
support the Party of Ideal, and
oppose the party that Is making a
sex appeal to them.
Democrats Rent Timely On
Claim f Harding.
In part she said:
"The Demooratic party rests Its
case firmly on the claim that H
is the party of Ideals; that Its fun
damental princlclfi. la belief In
equal rights to all and special
.privilege to none; -that leg!"
tation it has sponsored and passed
ha never been In the interest of
wider opportunity for the average
every- day cltleen, both men and
women.
"The Republican party has ask
ed the women of the country to
approve a tariff law that will put
thousands of dollars in the pock
eta of manufacturers at the ex
pense of every buyer In the coun
try; a revenue act that moves
$450,000,000 In taxation from the
shoulders of a few thousand peo
ple whose incomes are over $68,
000,000,000 and throw the burden
on the rest.
"The Democratic party on the
other hand asks the women by
their vote to put in power the
party that suuiorta the rights of
the consumer. It asks them to
show by their vote their Arm be
left in the Democratic principle
that taxes should be placed on the
shoulders of those who can more
easily bear them the holders of
surplus wealth.
"It anks them to say by their
vote whether they want to pay
more for everything they buy on
a vague promise that wages and
incomes may possibly be raised out
of the Immense profit of $3,000,
000.000 going V the producers un
der the tariff bill; whether they
believe in giving to the President
v.- riht in increase these profits
at will; whether they believe that
taxes of people witn inrojues m
$65,000 or over should be lowered.
"Tha Democratic party does not
ask the women to take it on faith.
Again and again it has proved the
application of Its principles and
under the recent leadership of
Woodrow Wilson It gave renewed
and Incontrovertible evidence that
It Is the party of New Idea and
Progressive Legislation."

"As United Htates Senators are
