MAGAZINE POSTAGE PLAN
Postmaster General Hitchcock
Makes an Explanation.

Washington. Nov. 4-POstmaster General
Hitchcock's plan of requiring magazines 70
paw increased postage on their advertising
pages sufficient To eliminate postal deficits
and warranting in the near future. one
cent postage on first class mail. was off,
cislly explained to-day
Mr.. Hitchcock believes that in CARRYING
out the administration purpose 10 accom-
plish a reasonable increase in the postaes
rates on certain kind OF second class mat
ter more distinction should be made be-
tween advertising and what il termed lezi-
timate reading matter He does not favor.
under present conditions. an increase N
the rates Of postage for carrying reading
matter. Any increase thus applied hs
says. will place special burden on a large
number of second class publications. such
as educational and religious periodicals.
which derive little or no profit from adve--
Using.
1t is the circulation of this type OF pub
ications. which aid so effectiveIy I'm the
educational and moral advancement OF the
people. that the government can best af-
ford to encourage. he says. For these pub
lications. and also for any other legitimate
reading matter In periodical form, Mr..
Hitchcock suggests a continuation of the
S'OS~AAe Rcota,t idlc OF one cent q pCunQs
and recommends that the proposed increase
be applied only to ma gazine ADVERTISING
matter.
This plan would be in full accord with
the statute governing second class mall. a
law that never justified the Inclusion under
the second class rates OF the vast amounts
OF advertising now transported by the xov-
ernment at a tremendous loss
In view of the vanishing postal deficit
Mr.. Hitchcock thinks that il the magazines
can be required to pay what ii costs tho
government 10 carry their advertising pages
the departments revenues will be large
enough to warrant one-cent postage on
first class mail He does not include news
papers i'm his recommendation, because hs
saws. they are chiefly OF local distribution
and do not employ the mails In any such
manner as the widely circulating maya
zines
! Under the plan proposed Mr.. Hitchcock
continues. it will be possible without IN

utilize for the benefit OF the entire peopls
that considerable portion OF the postal reve-
nues now expended to meet the cost of =
special privilege enjoyed by certain pub
fishers
Experiments made by the departm ment
show that IT is feasible to determine ths
relative weights OF the advertising matter
and the legitimate reading matter carried
by the magazines and Mr.. Hitchcock is con-
vinced that his plan can be put into sue
cessfuI operation
In accordance with regulations TO be pre-
scribed bv the department. each magazin.
