a rural parcels post at this session ana
there is some prospect that it Will COM

vessels which carry mail to ports on the

as close home to all the people as some
of the other postal innovations. Inc
President has lately taken that matter
up vigorously and a bill is being framed
hv legislators in whose ability TO get
favorable action from the House ana
Senate he has great confidence.
Then the postoffice reorganization bill,
the outgrowth of years of careful inves-

comprehensive in its scope and calculated
to make the Department IL modern
