oily SO as to prevent express COM
panies from handling the second, third
and four class mail matter, Represen-

The government monopoly of mail
carrying extends "to letters and pack

from competing with the government
in this line, under heavy penalties

and under such construction the ex'
press companies have been allowed to
carry everything except first class
mail in direct competition with the
government.
Representative Murdoch asks that

the government has power, under ex
