would usually receive serious consideration.
Today rates furnish the exception to al

resorting to advertisements to inform the public
that fact.
1t is we'll known what has done 1.-THE parcel post
the establishment of competition where monopolstic
combination had prevailed before. 1t was not
to send express magnates to jail to bring expensive
antitrust suits against them to accomplish that result
The parcel post once established express companies
simply had to do something to attract shippers to them
While competition of the parcel post with the express
companies has given the public better service than would
have been obtained from the old monopolies
petition these companies with parcel post will
also tend to better service from the government
than we would be likely to get without competition.
There is in this than merely example of
cheapened transportation. The abolition of monopoly
in other lines would result in lower cost of living

franchises must be revoked, the hold of monopoly

BARBAR1sM OF PAST

The maximum wage was invented
IN England before the minimum was
thought of. 1t came about after the

the population. Work was at a stand,

went up so enormously that the state
thought it necessary to fix a limit.

that the laborer should not merely ac-
