THE TwO-Cent Denomination VIII BE
Changed.
WASHINGTON, Sept 15--The Secre-
tary of the treasury and the postmas-
-ter-general, after consultation with
the president, have decided to change
the color of the current two-cent post
age stamps from carmine to green of
the shade now used on government
notes. The ten-cent postage stamp,
which is now printed in green, will be
changed to some other color, possibly
carmine. 1t is thought that green is
a more desirable color than carminc,
besides saving the government about
$1,000 in the difference in cost of the
