Washington, u. c., May 1s.-No de-

half dozen years ago Assistant Post
master General Jones, of Illinois, re-

of the department was cast against II,

rural free delivery routes. Each one
of these routes costs annually fro,, $500
to $1,000. In addition to these, about
800 routes have already been ordered
TO be established by July 1.
Congress has increased the expert

therefore, that, as soon as he returns.
the Postmaster General will be obliged
to issue formal notice that 1t will be
useless for congressman to forward any
Lore applications until there is an in
crease in the annual appropriation.
1t has become quite evident to the
postoffice officials that the experiments

their opinion the country is destined to
see before the close of the present adj
minstration revolution the like of
which has not been seen in the postal
business since the Introduction of the
envelope and the perforated postage
stamps. Only last year the appropria-
ton for this service was fixed at the
ridiculous sum of $450.000.
This year the appropriation is 81, $780,
600. For the next fiscal year beginning
July l. as already stated, this years ap-
i,ropriation has been doubled. Inasmuch
az the increased appropriation will be
exhausted long before the routes recon-

to cover entire counties with regular
mail delivery. The demand for the
service has been so enormous. however,
that most of the increases must be in
the direction of separate routes. 1t is
predicted by the department that within
a few years every county in the United
States which possesses fair density of
population and reasonably good roads
