PLEADS FOR PARCELS POST
DcGrnw Says Farmers OF Country De-
ninnd II.


Washington, December 29--1n the
annual report of Fourth Assistant
Postlnaster-Gt oral DeGraw, made
public to-day, are several recomlnen- :
dations designed to improve the rural
free delivery service. He describes In
detail the delivery Of mail in tie rural
districts throughout the country, and
makes an urgent plea for the estab-
lishment Of a parcel delivery system
along the line OF rural routes. Many
farmers, he says, are demanding such
system. and It's establishment would
mean an additional incoSie to the gov
ernment amounting to millions OF dol
lars. The total mileage in operation
on June 80 last was 993,06S; the
mileage per route averaging 2A17. The
by rural carriers was 9SG.9o3. The
average cost of service per mile of
route was s45.96 per annum.
Mr., DeGraw suggests that legisla-
tipn be enacted that will extend to
rural carriers and other employees OF
the postal service the existing laws
which authorize the Postmaster Cen
eral to pay the sum of $4,000 "to the
legal representatives of n railway pos
tai clerk or subrai1way mail clerk who
shall be killed while on duty, or who.
being injured while on duty, shall die
within one year thereafter as the re-
suit of such injury and also VIII au-
tnorize the payment to such employe
while suffering from injuries so re-
ceiYed his salary for a period of one
year. He further. recommends that
Congress enact legislation at the COM
ing session which will make provision
for the retirement of superannuated

Washington, December 29-Both
Senator Flint, OF California, chairman
of the Committee on Interoceapic Ca
nails. and Representative Mannl of IL
linois, chairman of the House Commit
tee on Interstate and Foreign Com
merce, expect TO introduce general
Panama Canal bills. These will incor-
porate their differing ideas as to the
needs of legislation for the big S375.-
100000 waterway in the official esti-
mate cost.
The White House conference devel-
oped substantial harmony of opinion
favoring fortifcador of the canal
presidential discretion as to the exact
amount OF tolls under prescribed maxi
mum and minimum limitations, gov
ernillent operation OF the dry dock and
repair shop facilities and government
sale of all the coal, oil and other
ship supplies at both ends of the ca
nal TO the trade of the world passing
through the canal The differences OF
views as to whether foreign shipping
and coastwfse shipping should receive
equal treatment in canal charges could
not be reconciled. and the problem still
is unsoIved
As an outgrowth of the conference.
Senator Flint Immediately after the
holiday recess will introduce bill
embodying the needed legislation from
his viewpoint. The general measure
which Mr.. Mann proposes probably
