Suggests Supervision.
in one respect, the postal service is
susceptible of marked improvement.
1t needs more effective system OF
supervision. over $4,000 afficers scat
tered throughout the length and
breadth of the land are directly de-
pendent on the department at WASH
ington for instructions, for authority
to make expenditures, and for sup
plies. 1t would seem to be an excel
lent plan to make large city postoffices
the centers of convenient postal areas
by giving city postmasters supervisory
authority over the smaller offices OF
the neighborhood.
The departments recommendation
for the establishment of postal saw
ings banks is earnestly renewed.
Boxes on City Residences.
Suggestions are made in the report
Of means by which the public could
facilitate the work of the postoffice
department. Among them are these:
The equipment of every residence
with private mail box in cities hav-s
ing carrier service; posting heavy
mailings early in the day, instead OF
the eening; thu general use of a re-
turn address on envelopes; the prompt
notification of postmasters of all
changes in addresses land the exer-
else of care in the proper addressing
of all mail matter.
Some idea of the size Of the postal
service of the United States and the
magnitude of its business can be
gained from a brief review of the
salient tfacts disclosed by the latest
annual statistics. These figures show
that the service now has about 5000
employees, and that those employees
handled during the last fiscal wear
nearly 14,000,000,0O0 pieces of mail.
The number Of postoffices in opera
tion is 6O,144. There are 26,652 do
nestle transportation routes, aggre-
eating 448,61S miles in length, with an
annual travel Of 542,151,121 miles. A
delivery service by carrier is provided
on 40,62S rural routes and in LAO
cities and towns. Culinary postage
stamps to the number of S,712.OO7.O 31
were sold during the year and do
nestle money orders to the value of
$491,074,844 were issued. The total
receipts for the fiscal year, 1909, were
$2OS,562, 3S3.07, an increase of 6.31 per
cent over the receipts of the previous
year. The total expenditures amount
ed to $221,OO4, 102.ss, an increase Of
6.O7 per cent.
