POSTMASTER GENERAL
GRANTS MORE TIME
Does Not Wish to Embarrass
Legitimate Publishers.
VIII Give Them Further Time in Which
to Adjust Business to New
Postal Conditions.

AS was stated last week, the post
master general has granted addi-
t1onal time to publishers who have
been honestly and earnestly en-
deavoring to comply with the new
postal ruling relative to the pay
ments of subscriptions. The law
which was to go into effect on the
1st day of April reads as follows:
A reasonable time will be allowed publishers
to secure renewals of subscriptions but unless
subscriptions are expressly renewed after the
term for which they are paid within the fol-
lowing periods
DailieS, within three months:
Semi WeellieS within nine months;
WeekieS, within one year;
they shall not be counted in the legitimate list
of subscribers, and copies mailed on account
thereof shall not be accepted for mailing at
the second-claSS postage rate of one cent q
pound but may be mailed at the transient
secOnd-claSs postage rate of one cent for each
four ounces or fraction thereof. prepaid by
stamps affixed.
On March % the editor of The
Herald forwarded to Washington
the following letter of inquiry:
LANCASTER. WIS. MARCH %, 'O8
THIRD ASST. p. NJ GEN'L,
Dear Sir;
For several weeks have been earnestly en-
QeaVOflng to secure payments and renewals
of all delinquent subscriptions to nv paper
before the time set for the taking effect of
the new postal rulings under Order No. 907-
viz April 1, 1908, and while hundreds of such
subscribers have responded to the notices in
the paper and circular letters sent to them, I
find quite number who have not yet done so.
Many have written to say that they cannot
pay previous to Apr il |, but will do so as soon
as possible.
The time is practically here now when your
ruling says that papers sent to delinquentS
must be cut off the list or sent out with stamps
afhXed thereto: My paper is Semi-weeldy
ana the stamping requirement viii mean q
heavy expense, while the cutting off of all
names of whose accounts are yet unpaid will
mean the losing of a great many bona-fide and
reliable patrons who want the paper, but who
for various reasons have not yet forwarded
their remittanceS
What course must I pursue in such case?
The losing of the patronage of such SubScrib-
erS, who have taken and paid for this paper
for many years. but who now chance to be
owing for more than nine months will be an
uni uSt loss to me and source of diSappOint-
ment and fancied affrOnt to the subscribers.
have been doing all could to get the list
all squared up before April /, and believe that
a few weeks longer would enable me to do So
Would it be possible to secure little addi-
tional extension of time beyond April l. for
this purpose?
Please telegraph at my expense your answer
to this proposition. in order that may comply
with whatever requirements may be neceS-
Sary. Yours respectfully,
b. J. LOWREY.
