the House today carried provisions to
increase rates on newspapers, maya
zines and other second class matter by

the current postoffice act. readjust rural
carriers salaries and increase the pay
Of number of employees.
Magazine publishers have protested

which would affect only publications
carried more than 800 miles, and post
master General Burleson, proposed to

committee a substitute provision to
postpone the effectiveness of the in
crease for year after the measure be-
comes a law. The bill as reported
would make the new rates apply after
June 80 however, and Mr.. Moon has not
indicated what action will be recon-
mended on Mr.. Burleson's suggestion
