POSToFFICE CONSOLIDATION
Approves Itself to the Postal Authoritlt
as Good ThIag.

u
Washington, June 29.-The work OF
consolidating small outlying postoffices
with a large adjacent one, making a
single postal district with modern facili-
ties, will be pushed vigorously by this
administration. The opposition 10 the
scheme comes, il said, from residents
who have wrong ideas of the objects Of
the department, or from postoffice en-
ployes whose positions are thereby af-
fected. The results of the consolidation
policy SO far carried out have been most
gratifying TO the Washington authori-
ties and First Assistant Postmaster
General Heath has determined that con-
soiidation shall be effected wherever
possible and feasible. Consolidation
abolishes the individual small postoffices
and substitutes sub-stations for them;
reduces the postmasters to sub-agents,
With accompanying saving Of salaries
and complicated auditing work, and, in
stead of the many postoffices, substitutes
the large Offices with branches ell hav-
ing free delivery and other advantages
accruing 10 a postoffice from such priv
ileges. Several consultations have been
ordered recently and others are contem-
pla ted.
At Los Angeles, Cal, four or five Of
fees near by have been consolidated
with good effect and similar action has
been taken at Denver recently.
