In his recent report Postmaster Gen.
eral Cortelyou makes 1t clear that the
maintenance and extension of rural
free delivery is to depend upon the on.
dltion OF he roads. other things being
equal. The roads on rIral delivery
routes, he declares, must "be kept in
gOod condition, unobstructed by gates
and with all streams fordable at all
seasons of the year" This is spread
Ing Over rural communities the sensi.
bic and necessary principle that Uncle
Sam will not Tolerate obstruction of
the mails"
The requirement of the government
Is In essence a demand that $4,000
roads throughout the country must not
be allowed to fall into decay, for when
ever n falls below the standard the
delivery cf mail upon that route will
be stopped. The provision is In har-
mony with good roads legislation and
with the spirit OF those progressive
communities which are alive to the Inn
