That Postal Deficit

efficient service be expected long the
direction of the business at present intrusted TO
Postmaster General and certain assistants selected with
special reference TO experience and qualifications and
subject TO frequent change BEFORE the Postmaster
General and his assistants becorae reasonably familiar
with the operations OF the service tey replaced by
Others Who in turn. called e resign before they
can in the nature OF things become qualified by knowl
edge and experience perform their allotted tasks.
Under such a system large railroad, commercial or
industrial business would inevitably into bankruptcy

meet deficiencies

In view of these official statemer

" In view of these official statements
by those whom Congress authorized to in
vestigate the Post-Office, we submit that
the Postmaster-General's attempt to wipe
out the deficit in his Department by raising
the postage on your magazines, instead of by
devOting his energies to securing legislation
that will place the service on sound, eff
cient and economical basis, is unwise and
unbusinesslike. The nature of his recon-
mendatons, and the attempt to exempt
newspapers from any increase, are final
grounds for divorce of this great business
department from politics.
