Dear Sir: am writing behalf of the country daily and weekly newspapers in connection with the proposed changes in second class postal rates.
 Newspapers generally and the aforementioned class of newspapers particularly, of extreme importance the government at this time in its efforts to awaken uni veSa public sentiment in support of the purposes of the government in the increasing and conserving of food pro- ducton in the enlistment of the necessary labor for the farms and in other ways.
 These newspapers giving full measure of loyal support to the government without question and without price While the government called upon pay for such products may need from other lines of industry and pay for these not only the of production but at price that profit the manufacturer the newspa- pers giving their product-ther space-to the ment without price.
 Newspaper publishers and newspaper corporations pay income and corporation the same proportion as do those engaged in other lines
 In view Of these facts it would certainly be unfair to the publishers of these papers them greater degree than other lines of industry that what general increase in second class postal rates would do.
 It the daily and weekly newspaper circulation rather than that of the periodical that of especial value to the this me and for the purposes of increasing the postal revenues it would that the system might be applied in such way to be entirely fair the newspapers and seriously effect the circulation of any o them If congress will retain the present free-incou- y clause of the postal laws will retain the present

pound circulation outside of the county but only points within the limits of the third zone and then apply parcel post all circulation outside of the third zone there would be weounded objection the part of any newspaper
 The newspapers of each section of the nation ade quatey the needs of the section which they pub hed and the method proposed above would affect the circulation of any paper in its legitimate field The only ob econ if any, that would be raised such method would from the papers of very few of the larger cities and this objection would be based purely selfish interests and not founded upon any legitimate basis of the public or to the government
 believe this to be subject of such extreme import the nation that trust the committee will confer with representative publishers of country daily and weekly papers before taking any definite action increasing on second class mail. Yours very truly,
