HAS 4 PLAN FOR

Postmaster General Meyer,
After Visiting Roosevelt,
Makes Move.
POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS
OTHER INNOVATIONS I'M ANNUAL
REPORT.

New York Aug. 1S.-Postmaster Gen
eral Meyer. who talked with President
Roosevelt in Oyster Bay the other day,
has announced that ne has on foot move
ments to insure the package post, the pos
tai savings bank and other innovations.
II am going to recommend to congress
in my annual report said Mr.. Meyer,
the establishment of a domestic parcels
post service limited to ten pounds or any
other weight that congress will accept,
five pounds if necessary.
Il am also considering the feasibility
of recommending the establishment of
some sort of postal savings bank We
find that today some people are buying
postal orders payable to themselves as a
means Of saving their money. This shows
that there is room and need for a postal
savings bank which will give the people
a chance to deposit their savings.
II will not advocate the increase of the
postal rates on any class of mail matter.
am considering a plan for the reduction
of postal rates between the United States
and such countries as We have direct
steamship communication with-England.
France Germany-from 5 cents per half
ounce to 2 cents. To make a reduction
will not require legislation. but joint ac-
ton by the postal authorities of the two
interested countries.
I'VE now carry letters from the At
lantic to the Pacific for cents and from
any part of the United States TO our col
onies for cents. I think the rate be-
tween the United States and England
and similar countries should be no higher
England has a postal rate of cents with
her colonies.
I'VE are also going to experiment with
a view to introducing postage stamp slot
machines generally, from which scent 9
cent and 1-cent stamps may be bought.
I have also been considering for some
time the establishment of a new delivery
