PARCEL POSTS QUESTION
Postmaster General Gives His Ideas
and Also Talks of Postal
Savings Banks.

Philadelphia. Oct. 26-Postmaster
General George Won L. Meyer. at a din
ner at the Union League club tonight.
made an address in which he called at
tention to recommendations which he
Proposes making in his annual report
for the consideration of the next con
gress- On the question of PARCEL posts,
he said:
Il shall recommend the same rate. u
cents a pound, and the same limit of
weight for parcels, whether intended
for points in this country or abroad
which means a reduction of 4 cents
pound and an increase in the maximum
weight to eleven pounds"
Taking up the rural parcels post
question, he said:
Il shall recommend a parcels post
system on the rural delivery routes. a
special rate TO be charged on pack
ages for delivery from the distributing
offices of the rural route, or if mailed
by patron of any rural route for de-
livery to a patron on the same route
or at the distributing office of said
route. The rate would be 5 cents for
the first pound and > cents for each
additional pound up to eleven pounds
This will be a great boon to the farm
ers"
Regarding postal savings banks, the
postmaster general said:
'As an evidence that it is not the
desire of the government to compete
with the private savings banks in OBJ
tanning deposits of the people, 1 shall
advocate a rate of interest of per
cent per annum, or l per cent semi-an-
nually. and a limit of $780, not more
than $3.50 to be deposited in any one
year. My own belief is that, far from
its being q detriment TO the estab
lished banks. it would be in the end
an advantage. Now, i'm order to get
this money back into the channels of
trade, l purpose to ask congress for
authority to place the savings III the
national banks"
