POSTMASTER GENERAL
HAYS
Hays is one of ns. He is the
same kind of man you are. He
is the same kind of a citizen as
any good postmaster or good
postal employee, and they are all
good, for only the good could
survive a double dose of Hitch
cock and Burleson.
Hays is a “regular fellow’’.
Let us illustrate •
Meyer scarcely ever ate in a pub
lie restaurant. Nine people, at
least, were required to wait on
him at breakfast. Hitchcock
had no such training before his
sudden rise to fame, but while
Postmaster General his meals
were especially prepared for him
and served as secretly as possib
le, it being unthinkable that any
one should see him eat at Har
veys, just across the street from
the Post Office Department, a
restaurant which is and has
been nationally and internation- J
ally famous.
Hays blew into the P O.D. lunch
room, where the common herd
replenish for another attack at
their arduous duties. He walk
ed right up to the counter like
any other clerk. He said,‘‘I’m
Will Hays. I work here too.”
If there is any injustice done
in the Postal Service it will
be by some one who keeps the
facts from Will Hays.
If there is any inefficieny
anywhere it will he because Will
Hays had not heard of it and
corrected it.
Don’t let anyone treat you un
fairly. If you have a just
grievance, get your story to
Headquarters and it will be cor
rected.
If you have no grievance, pull
lor the Postal Service to the
limit of your ability, and at the
same time you will b i pulling
for your friend — and he is
your friend, regardless of polit
ics or any other consideration.
Will Hays.
