Hitchcock began in the department of agriculture as chief of the division of foreign markets He served in that capacity from 1897 to 1003 during which he wrote many comprehensive reports of his division In 1903 he was transferred to the new department of commerce and labor which was under the direction of George Cortelyou as secretary Mr Hitchcock became chief clerk of the department helped organize it and served with it for two years The efficient system which he installed spread to other departments and is still largely used in government work Mr Hitchcock's ability in this respect was recognized when he was appointed as a member of the Keep commission named to reorganize various government departments on a business basis Upon the completion of that service he entered the post office department as first assistant postmaster general When he later became head of the postal service Mr Hitchcock established the postal savings banks and the parcel post delivery as well as inaugurating preliminary plans for air mail service In his message to congress in February 1912 President Taft commended Mr Hitchcock and the work of the postoffice depaitment He called attention of congress to the surplus of $219000 at the end of the fiscal year In 1911 as compared with a deficit of more than 17 million dollars two years before This was not to be accounted for by reduction of forces or number of postoffices or salaries the President said but by scientific economy DRAPER To coMMERCE POST WASHINGTON Aug 5--(A Gallaudet Draper of New York was nominated by President Roosevelt

Boulevard Airdrome on Long Island he made an experiment by taking up a pouch of mail with a pilot Upon landing he said: "Of course the usefulness of the airplane as a mail carrier will increase but even in the present stage of development it might be used to good advantage over impassable stretches of country now necessitating long detours in the delivery of mail" Previous to his appointment as a member of the Taft cabinet Mr Hitchcock served four years as first assistant postmaster general in the Roosevelt administration and before that was chief clerk of the department of commerce and
