FREE MAIL DELIVERY.
Pout master-General Hays has made
the recommendation In his annual report to the effect that the post office
department discontinue free delivery
of mall In all villages throughout the
United States. This would mean that
all people living Iu towns of less than
10,000 population would be obliged to
go to the post office to get their mall.
It will be remembered that the post
office department discontinued a large
number of offices In the country several years ago when they put the rural
delivery system Into effect and at that
time all offices that were not at least
paying their own way were included
in the rural delivery system, and now
that the post office department is meeting a deficit each year the officials
want to take another slap at the rural
sections.
While Postmaster Stlwald has not
given out any definite figures, It Is
generally known that the local office
does a good business considering the
number of employes and carriers, and
it Is the same all over the country. It
is In the larger cities that the offices
are not paying their own way and It
Is an injustice to the people living In
villages to have the free delivery taken away from them. Instead of such i
a move mean efficiency In the post
office department, It seems that it la
a step backward and not a atop forward.
The matter of this, recommendation
becoming effective will not be decided
until the appropriation bill for tbe
post office department will have come
before congress for consideration, and
in order to prevent such a move by
congress it is up to tbe people In general to make protest to the congressman In this district and to the United
States senator. All civic and municipal bodies, all business houses and citizens should make protest and make
them right away tn order that our officials may see Just how we feel about
such a move.

Pout master-General Hays has made the recommendation In his annual report to the effect that the post office department discontinue free delivery of mall In all villages throughout the United States. This would mean that all people living Iu towns of less than 10,000 population would be obliged to go to the post office to get their mall. It will be remembered that the post office department discontinued a large number of offices In the country several years ago when they put the rural delivery system Into effect and at that time all offices that were not at least paying their own way were included in the rural delivery system, and now that the post office department is meeting a deficit each year the officials want to take another slap at the rural sections. While Postmaster Stlwald has not given out any definite figures, It Is generally known that the local office does a good business considering the number of employes and carriers, and it Is the same all over the country. It is In the larger cities that the offices are not paying their own way and It Is an injustice to the people living In villages to have the free delivery taken away from them. Instead of such i a move mean efficiency In the post office department, It seems that it la a step backward and not a atop forward. The matter of this, recommendation becoming effective will not be decided until the appropriation bill for tbe post office department will have come before congress for consideration, and in order to prevent such a move by congress it is up to tbe people In general to make protest to the congressman In this district and to the United States senator. All civic and municipal bodies, all business houses and citizens should make protest and make them right away tn order that our officials may see Just how we feel about such a move.
