POSTAGE AND GOOD ROADS

Representative Charles l. Bartlett
of Georgia has introduced in con
gress bill providing for one-cent
hostage for first class mail instead OF
the present two-cent rate. In state
ment given out by him statistics are
auoted TO show that about 20 per cent
of the present postal revenues are
paid on first class mail. 1t is further
stated as demonstrated by postal au-
thorities, that letters can be carried
for one cent and that any rate over
that represents clear profit for the
government. The statement as quot
ed, further says
"lt has been demonstrated by the
postoffce authorities that letters can
be carried for one cent, and any rate
over one cent represents clear proht
TO the government AS a matter OF
fact it is probable that n one-cent let
ter mail rate will pay a handsome
profit when 1t comes into existence,

Improvement of the roads? 1t has
been proposed as one means for this
much needed improvement, that the
government should pay "A subsidy bo-
nus or premium for the reconstruc-
tion and improvement of postal roads,
grading these payments per mile. in
accordance with the character Of the
work done, whether in making per
manent roads or in road improve
ments. The need of lower postage
is much less pressing than the need
Of better roads, and the better roads
should themselves bring lower post
age as well as quicker and more
efficient service. There Is no tax
which rests so lightly on the people
as a whole, as the payment of their
postage bills, and if through contin-
uancc of the present first-class rate
they can be given the opportunity to
contribute to the creation of better
roads, better postal service and ul-
timately lower rates, they will not
