PARCEL-POST CHEER FOR CHRIST
MAS

A Christmas gift that appears to be
widely appreciated is Postmaster Gen
eral Burleson's order increasing
weight limits, reducing rates, and adj
hitting books to the parcel post. Most
of these changes Will take place on
January /, little too late for Christ
mas shoppers, but not too late to be a
part of our Christmas cheer. For it is
a sign that the parcel-post system
twill be developed to its fullest use,
thinks the Washington Post, and that
ultimately it ought to have the desir-
ed effect on the cost of living" "That
such radical changes are to become eff
fective one year after the parcel post
was first put in operation is conyinc-
ing proof" to the Philadelphia Press
"of popular appreciation OF this
splendid public utility established by
the government. According to the
postmaster generals announcement
as summarized in the press dispatches
"the weight limit on packages to be
carried in the first two zones-that is.
to any point within $50 miles of their
starting place-will be increased on
January / from 90 to so pounds" AT
the same time, "The limit of weight on
packages carried in the third, fourth,
fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth zones,
or to all points in the United States
beyond the 150-mile limit, will be in
creased from II to 20 pounds" In
the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth zones
rates are reduced. Beginning next
March, books are to be admitted to the
parcel post The rate on books weigh

Usher like to celebrate an occasional

New Years Day occurred on the press
