Also the person who desires to take

INCREASED POSTAGE
THE MATTER EXPLAINED az
POSTMASTER GENERAL.
APPLIES ONLY TO MAGAZINES
Believes Distinction Should BE Made
Between Advertising md L.
climate Reading Matter.

Observation-Disclosures General
Hitchcock.s plan Of requiring the
magazines to pay increased postage
on their advertising pages sunicient
to eliminate postal deficits and to
warrant 1 cent postage on first class
mail In the near future was Oficially
explained. Mr.. Hitchcock. feeling
his position had not been clearly un-
derstood. issued this statement:
POSTMASTER General Hitchcock be-
lieves that In carrying out the ad-
ministration's purpose to accomplish
a reasonable increase in the postage
rates on certain kinds of second-class
matter. more distinction should be
made between advertising and what
is termed legitimate reading matter.
He does not favor. under present con-
ditions. an increase In the rates of
postage for carrying reading matter.
Any increase thus applied. he points
out. will place a special burden on a
large number of second-class publica-
tons. such as educational and reli-
no profit from advertising.
For these publications and also
for any other legitimate reading mat
ter In periodical form. Mr.. Hitchcock
suggests a continuation Of the pres
ent low postage rate of I cent
pound and recommends that the pro-
posed increase in rates be only ap-
piled to magazine advertising matter.
This plan would be In full accord
with the statute governing second
class mail. a law that never justified
the inclusion under the second-class
rates Of the vast amounts of advertis-
ing now transported by the govern
ment at tremendous loss.
I'm view OF the vanishing postal
deficit Mr.. Hitchcock thinks that if
the magazines can be required to pay
what it costs the government to car
~ their advertising pages the depart
nent's revenues will be large enough
to warrant 1 cent postage on first
class mail. 80"
Under the plan proposed 1t will be
possible without Increasing the ex-
penditure of public funds to utilize
for the benefit of the entire people
that considerable portion of the post
al revenues now expended to meet
the cost of q special privilege enjoyed
by certain publishers.
Experiments made by the depart
ment show that it is quite feasible to
the relative weights of the
matter and the legitimate
reading matter carried by the maya
zines and Mr.. Hitchcock is convinced
that his plan can be put into success
full operation"
