WASHINGTON, Aug. 9s.-A high cos.
Of living bonus Of $3.50 a year for yir-
tuslly al employees Of the postal ser
vice has been agreed upon by The
House Committee on Post onlces and
Pots Roads
The action. which means an addi-

The only limitations Of the bonus are
that The salaries of third class post
masters shall not be increased 10 more
than 5000 a year and fourth class
postmasters 10 more than $1,000
Members of the committee denied that
The veiled threats OF strikes by leaders

ing.
