SEC0ND-CLASSR RATE
RAISE NOT FAVORED
Parcel Post Increases Held
to Have No Relation to
Reading Matter.

The National Delivery Association,
with executive offices here, which is
solidly behind legislation now before
congress to require parcel post mails
to be handled on self-sustaining
basis denied today that Congress has
any idea of increasing rates on sec
ond-class matter Incidental to the
proposed plan for "differential wage
increases" in the postal service.
"The mail order interests, which
have benefited from the low rates of
parcel post. have intimated that III the
event that increased salaries are
given to postal employees there will
be an increase in second class rates"
Mr.. Maurice, president of the associa-
Jion said.
Reasons Against Increase.
LAS members of the joint commit
tee on post Office and post roads are
we'll aware of the facts concerning
this situation they have no desire
Whatsoever to increase the second
class rates, for the reason that they
are beneficial to the masses in that
they stimulate education of the peo-
pie through magazines. periodicals
and newspapers. But on the other
hand, it is essential that the question
of parcel post rates be determined
and settled, as it is creating such an
unnecessary loss to the government
and such loss is being charged to
taxation" declared Mr. kressin.
Bills We're introduced ir February
ay Representative Paige and Senator
Dale, under the provisions of which
the rate of postage on fourth class or
parcel post mail weighing not more
than nine ounces would be L cent for
each ounce or fraction thereof.
Would Abolish Losses.
On all packages weighing more
than nine ounces, the basic rate per
pound is fixed at Is cents, except that
for local delivery and on rural routes
radiating from point of mailing, the
preferential rate of 10 cents per
pound is fixed.
Not only have the present parcel
post rates resulted in heavy losses to
the Post Office Department, accord
ing to officials of the delivery as
sociation, but because of the fact that
the government has handled parcels
at much less than actual cost, it has
seriously impaired and in many in
stances destroyed the business of
private concerns engaged in the par
Gel delivery business.

WILL WALK HOME
Mexican Youth Says He Will Hike to
Piedras Negras.

Failing in his efforts to persuade
Uncle Sam to pay for his Transports
ton back to, Mexico. 15-year-old
youth, homesick for his native town
of Piedras Negras. Mexico. which he
left over one year ago, started out
early Tuesday morning to walk back
to the Rio Grande. That is il he car
ried into effect his announcement to
federal officers Monday afternoon. :,
He had walked to San Antonio
where he had ben staying at the home
of an uncle and grandfather and il
he walked up here he could walk back,
he said.
Several weeks ago the immigrant Of
ficials received information from the
father of the boy that his son had
illegally entered the United States.
The boy was questioned and he and
his relatives agreed I'd voluntary de-
portation. Shortly before train time.
they inquired about tickets. The boy
would have to bear the expense of
purchasing the ticket, they were in
formed. The departure was delayed.
Later the boy appeared before the
federal officers and informed them
that his father had refused to send

the money and that he could not OBJ
tain the needed funds from any other
source. He wanted to return to his
home at the expense of Uncle Sam.
Immigrant officials here believe that
the father deliberately informed the
service of the presence
of his. son in San Antonio on the
theory that he would be returned TO
Piedras Negras at the expense OF the
United States.
The boy did not report to any imm;-
grant officer Tuesday morning, and it
is presumed that he either started on
the long hike to Eagle Pass and Pied
gras Negras, or that most probably
he is still in San Antonio now that
he has given up hope of having the
government pay his transportation to
the border.

MOVE CAR POUND
New "Pen" Is South Of Central Fire
Headquarters.

The location of the police automo-
bile pound shifted Tuesday.
The new "pen" will be located on
| st. Mary's street, south of central fire
headquarters and adjoining the river
on the south side. Tuesday morning
Police Chief Van Ripper gave orders to
fit up the new location and move the
office of the pound keeper. Cars now
in the pound will, unless redeemed, be
moved to the new site.
The change was made necessary,
when the owner of the old "Pen y
tract demanded rent be paid him for
use of the land. The new location
owner agreed TO allow the department
sufficient space for the maintenance
of the pound. The new site will be
located in section of what is known
as the Bowen Island tract.

Improvements to Field
Afford Comfort and
Satisfaction tO/FanS

Feminine fans who attended the
WaterviIle-G football game
Saturday rejoiced to see the regula-
tion bleachers In place on the side
lines where one could view the grid
iron from all angles. Inquiry proved
that these were placed there for the
season through the courtesy of r. r.
Littlefield and F. N. Boston. officials
Of the Gardiner Driving Club. The
bleachers had been set up at the
driving club park at Merrilrs Cor
ner. and as they were not being used
there these two men with their usual
personal interest in the welfare of
Gardiner high sports offered them to
the school for the season. and need
less to say they have filled long
felt want. While there are some per-
sons who would prefer to follow the
play. there are many who would rath-
er have an opportunity to watch 1t
while seated as they must do at big
college games. The bleachers have
a seating capacity of about 500.
Another big improvement that has
been made for football followers this
year is the new manner in which the
field is roped of. Here again the ex-
ample of college field is followed, for
the field has been roped Off in the
shape of a shallow bowl, the ropes
in the middle being placed back
farther so that this space cannot be
crowded and the people further down
the sides shut off from view of the
play. The tennis courts>were seen
by many for the first time on Satur-
day and as a game was in progress
they were shown the great advan-
tage Of these courts to embryo Wills
and Tildens. The appearance Of
this portion of the athletic field has
been greatly improved through the
generosity Of F. N. Boston, who has
had the sides and supports Of the
courts painted.
On all sides Saturday were heard
admiring comments on the field as a
whole and the difference it presented
from former years. Many have pro-
nounced it the best high school field
in the state and this statement Is not
exaggerated. With first class Gin
der track, baseball diamond. pits for
field events, gridiron. tennis courts,
the adequate drainage system with
which 1t has been equipped. it Is a
field of which any Gardiner citizen
whether or not he is sport enthu-
siast, may well feel proud. 1t is not
work has been made possible for ev-
eryone knows that it was through the
earnest efforts of group of men
who are we'll known for their civic
pride and promotion. In an interview
with one of these men yesterday it
was found that the only reward for
their work that they wanted was the
support of all for Gardiner high, the
school itself, and especially for her
sports. Their object is to make this
football season one of the old fash
toned kind where Gardiner high was
famous for her eleven and a formid-
able enemy: They consider that the
team has worked hard and made a
good start and now it Is up to the
townspeople to show their apprecia-
ton of what this group of men have
done, and what the team is doing and
back them up. for they deserve it.
