M|SUNDERST TANOING
Of PARCELS POST BILL

A general Misunderstanding seems
to exist relative to the parcels post
Dill now pending In congress. Nu-
merous commercial and other organi'
2ations Of this and other states have
passed resolutions cOndcmnins tne
measure and asking that il be not
passed by congress. with the belief
that it provides for general parcels
post system On the contrary, the
measure provides simply for the es-
tablishment OF a system Of local par
cells post, operating only over rural
and star routes and of benefit only
to the merchants of the cities and
towns ont OF which such routes oper-
ate.
Section l. of the measure, which
was introduced by MI Mondell, pro
vides for a system Of local parcels
post, and section 2, is:
That the said parcels post shall
be confined TO and consist of the
transportation and delivery of articles
and parcels of merchandise and mat
ter not exceeding eleven pounds in
weight over all rural free delivery
and star routes.
Section D. THAT the rate of post
age on all articles, matter, or par
cells entitled to transportation and de
livery under the provisions of this
act shall be- en- parcels up to one
pound. cents, for each additional
pound or fraction thereof, cents,
making the rate on a II pound pack
age % cents
Tie three sections comprise the
entire bill 1t benelits in no way the
mail order houses Of the cities, who
can do business through the mails
only under the present regulations.
