Parcel Post
Cost Railways
Receipts From Fourth
Glass Tall Increased by
Over $4,000, 900.

The railroads are complaining
of the parcel post. Managers Of
mail carrying lines have com.
planned repeatedly to the post
Office department and to Con.
gress that they have not been
getting fair treatment in the
matter Of pay for the postofice
matter which they carry.
Last winter Congress appoint
ed a joint congressional com mmit-
tee,of which Senator Jonathan
Bourne, was chairman, to en-.
Quire into the matter Of railroad
compensation for carrying the
mails.
In the meantime the Postoffice
department announces that it's
receipts for fourth class mail for
the first six months for 1918
were $4,000, ,OOO,, as compared
with $12,5OO 900 for the same
class of mail during the entire
fiscal year that ended July /,
1912.
The railroad managers say that
they have had to carry the post
office matter represented by the
increase Of receipts without a
cent Of increased pay; that they
were working for inadequate
compensation before parcel post
packages were added to the mail
matter they handled, and that
when the rates of compensation
we're adjusted last spring, a rate
which isato stand for the next
four yesrs, the Postoffice depart.
ment, without a word Of warning
to the railroads, increased the
parcel post limit to twenty
pounds, and that for the mex,
four years the railroads Will have
10 carry packages over eleven
pounds for nothing.

the parcel post will increase the
receipts for fourth class mail for

mail for the present fiscal year.
which began on July ] last, by |
an amount estimated to be be-
tween $4,000, 900 and, $4,000, !
900, and will probably give the
postofice department a surplus
lnr the fiscal year Of at least
$40, 100000.
For New York City alone the
parcel post caused a gross increae
ior the first nine months of this
calendar year Of 81, $50, 900. This
period includes only six weeks
