Plan Proposed for Reorganization o
Postoffice Department.

Plan Proposed for Reorganization of
Postoffice Department.
Washington, Dec. 17-Important
recommendations for changes In the
organization of the postal service are
made by the joint commission on bus
mess methods of the postoffice depart
ment and postal service, which today
laid before congress the results of its
deliberations during the past two
years.
The commission favors a permanent
administration head for the depart
ment, to be known as the director of
posts. This officer, it is suggested,
should be given general management of
the postal service, while the postmas-
ter general remains the administrator
of the postal finances.
1t is proposed to abolish the offices of
four assistant postmasters general and
to rearrange the work under separate
bureaus. 1t is proposed to divide the
country into postal districts upon ad-
ministrative, and not geographical,
considerations for the management of
the postal service. Fourth class post
offices are recommended to be placed
on salary basis. Postal notes or mon-
ey orders are suggested for sums not
exceeding IS.
