RAISE FOR RURAL CARRIERS
Increase to Apply to About 22,soO Men
in Service.

Under the recent act Of Congress
making appropriations for the postal
service for the ensuing fiscal year. the
Postmaster-Ge General may fix the SAL
aries of carriers in the rural delivery
service at a rate not exceeding $500
per annum after July /, 1907. The
highest rate now paid under existing
law is S720 per annum
The readjustment OF salaries under
the new law has not been fully deter
mined, but II is proposed 10 allow the
maximum rate-S900 to all carriers on
routes "a or more miles in length, as
shown by the records OF the depart
ment This viii give approximately
%, 500. or about go per cent, Of the
carriers an advance in salary OF $3.50
per annum.
A substantial increase in pay for
other carriers is contemplated, but the
chief benehciaries Of the new law will
be those serving the longer routes. upon
whom the greater hardships Of the ser7
vice fall. Carriers on the shorter
routes ranging from 10 10 IA and IA
10 16 miles in length. now receive s504
and $40 per annum, respectively, being
proportionally better paid than carriers
on routes of 20 or more miles.
The pay of substitute rural carriers
will also be increased in many cases.
This advance, in pay for carriers and
substitutes. it is estimated. win result
In an approximate increase Of S5.9Oo.oOV
In the cost of rural delivery service.
Il is expected that within the next
60 days the regulations and instrue-
tions pertaining TO the rural delivery
service will be issued and distributed
IN pamph ct form 20 pOstmasters and
carriers. The copy is now in the hands
