tally of the postal savings banks.
While there are only 1,453 savings
banks reporting to the Comptroller
there are more than 81, 900 postof-
fees. 10000 of which are money or
der Offices. Postal savings banks are
now in operation in practically all
the great civilized countries with the
exception of the United states.
In my last annual message | COM
mended the Postmaster.Generals rec.
commentator for an
PARCEL POST extension of the par
Gel post on the rural
routes. The establishment of local
parcel post on rural routs would be
to the mutual benefit of the farmer
and the country storekeeper, and 1t
Is desirable that the routes. serving
more than 100000 people, should
be utilized to the fullest practicable
extent. An amendment was proposed
In the Senate at the last session, at
the suggestion of the Postmaster Gen
eral, providing that, for the purpose
of ascertaining the practicability Of
establishing a special local parcel
post system on the rural routes
throughout the United States, the
Postmaster General be authorized
and directed to experiment and re-
port to the Congress the result of
such experiment by establishing
special local parcel post system on
rural delivery routes in not to ex-
InpI mo N Fnt oil
States for packages of fourth-class
matter originating on rural route
or at the distributing postoffice for
delivery by rural carriers. II would
seem only proper that such an exper-
iment should be tried in order to
demonstrate the practicability of the
proposition, especially as the POST
master General estimates that the
revenues derived from the operation
of such system on all the rural
routes would amount to many million
dollars.
