Washington, MAY 29.-PostmAste1
General Hitchcock has realized his
ambition of seeing the Postoffice de-

In a statement issued tonight it is
announced that the department at lasl
Is able to meet its entire expenses

warranted the prediction that the

Not only is the service self-sustain

thirty years, but there now is a pos
tai surplus in excess OF $1,000, 900

According to the Postmaster Generai
the deficit has been wiped out, no
by curtailing postal facilities, but en-
