7ERy modcstly and thirdly a little harmless parcels post plan
lifted it's head in Congress the other day. The House
Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads reported almost
unanimously an appropriation bill with a rider providing for the
tender beginnings of such q system.
Forthwith a hollow groan went up from Georgia. The whole
parcels post proposal is really a diabohcsl device needed by j. p.
Morgan for a gigantic mercantile trust scheme Of his which will
put IS per cent. of the mercantile houses in Georgia out Of
business!
"Such a mercantile trust" said the editor OF the Merchants
Journal, to a meeting of trembling Southern merchants in Atlanta,
could be formed much easier than was either the Steel or the Oil
combination. And once in existence, would be supreme. J. P. Nor
gan through II. B. Cafin & Co. is already preparing for the trust
in anticipation Of the passage Of the parcels post"
Apparently even the members of a House Committee saw finally
how ridiculous it is to keep up . smte Of things under which the
United States Government often carries parcels through its mails for
people living abroad At a lower rate than for its own citizens. Also
these same parcels for foreign scnders or receivers are heavier than
would he allowed here. The bill revises rates, provides for q two
year experiment with parcels post on rural routes, and recommends
. commission to investigate the subject generally and report 10
Congress.
But this revelation from Georgia is too horrible! Let us never
mention parcels post again!
