New York, Aug. 9,-New York was
introduced today to the postage meter
"a machine which makes every man
his own stamp printer and does a.
way with the necessity of sticking
them on. The National City Bank
has the first one exhibited here. .
The machine, recently approved by
the postofice department, operates
on a principle similar to that. Of the
governments automatic cancelling
machine. AS the letters are run thru
it,ia square about the size of a stamp
is printed, in which appear the words

The machine is equipped with a

postoffice authorities. When the reg
lister shows the ueer has stamped as
mapy letters as he paid for, the ma
chine stops and has to be taken ta
the postoffice to be reset. ~.
