Efficiency Of HItchcock's Management of the Post Office Department
 Attacked by tho A. N. p. A.

Washington.-The A. N. P. A., through its postal committee of which Don. C. Seitz of New York is chair man, has joined in the fight against the proposed increase in second-class rates and in Its last bulletin the con- mittee attacks the management of the post office department. The bulletin Is as follows:
 The extent to which the post ofics department does not carry sec ond-class matter Is we'll revealed in the following abstract of inquiry of publishers conducted by house com mittee on expenditures in the post office department (William A. Ash brook. chairman) concerning the vol ume, weight and handling of the out put of publications entered as mail matter of the second-class for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911:
 Inquiry WAS made of all publish CTS. approximating thirty thousand. of which nearly seventeen thousand are weekly publications.
 More than ten thousand returns were received, embracing sixty-six plus per cent of all tonnage of pub iications.
 The publications reporting repre- sent an annual output of more than six and one-half billion copies. the weight of which was one and three quarter billion pounds.
 These publications delivered by mail in such period weighed 33,012.- 902 pounds.
 They delivered by their own car riers, newsboys. and news companies S40.466,5T4 pounds, of which an unas- certained percentage was carried to destination by express and other rail shipments outside the mail. They de- livered by express. POP, ,51O pounds, and by other rail shipments 121,491,- 74s pounds The rate by express and rail varies from A to cent per pound, but the bulk of these ship ments went at rate of A to Ia cent per pound.
 The post office for the year end Ing June 30, 1911, handled 951 ,001.- 669. and excluding one-half million pounds free in county matter, it re- ceiyed one cent per pound
 All this goes to add to the ab- surdity of the proposed Hitchcock leg ialation doubling the second-class rate from one to two cents per pound, and limiting the privilege to publications that carry as much reading matter as they do advertising
 The proposition was stupid enough when the postal deficit reached ST.. 100000 two years ago. It becomes preposterous in face of surplus.
 What business has a transporta- ton corporation, which Is all the post office is. to prescribe how business shall be conducted?
 Newspapers cannot afford to ex- pand their colursas beyond the call of the days news, nor can they be expected to control the requirements of their advertisers who have a right to reach the public as copiously as they care to.
 Tt cannot be assumed that such legislation will ever get by congress. But publishers are requested to fight the theory that the right to send their output by mall is privilege" The figures show 1t Is not
 The post office is a badly man. aged business. That Is all. We should fight its dictation, it's censor ship and it's inefficiency."
