Thinks That RandalRs Newspaper
Postage eiisis Likely 10
Become 4 aw.

Washington, D. CA readiusH
ment of certain postal rates seems
apparent iESthe next session OF on
gresss said Congressman johnson.
Commenting on the situation, Mr..
johnson said: The advocates OF i
Cent letter postage have succeeded in
educating the patrons OF our postal
service to the realization That ex-
listing. rates are far from being equit-
able and that the time Is oppprtune for
a change.
Many bills have been introduced
IN the two houses Of congress provid-
ing a n cent rate for local delivery
letters. The advocates Of these bills
contend that favorable action on any
one of them would not result in any
loss Of revenue to the government
because OF the increased volume Of
business that would be bound to fol-
low the installation Of this rate on
locaM lettenH. However, a PROPOSE
ton has been advanced by Congress
man Randall OF the postal committee
which will make seGond7class matter
subject TO a zone system Of rates.
Such a system will increase the an
snual revenues sufficiently SO as to
prevent any possible loss on account
OF the proposed reduced rate on drop
letters.
There is no apparent reason, in my
Judgment said Congressman Johnson
why our postal rates should not be
based more On what it actually costs
the government to handle the various
classes OF mail.
The Randall bill, which seems thor
oughly just, provides a rate of / cent
per pound on secoTd-class matter in
the first zone of 800 miles, but does
not affect freefn-county circulation.
The rate increases in the four othei
zones proportionately. Newspapers
will be affected but little by the pro-
posed change because a very small
portion OF a newspapers circulation
rel goes outside of a radius of 300
miles of the seat of publication. The
rate to other publications, with lore
general circulation, will be very low
compared to the service rendered.
Il am informed that the chairman
of the house postal committee, with
a majority of its members, and many
of the members of the senate postal
committee are favorable to a change
in the rates on second-class matter
along the line suggested in the Ran
dali bill and a favorable report is all
most certain to- be the result"

expressly endorsed Congressman Ram
dall's bill for a modification OF news
paper rates, it did not know that the
