S73,5)O,O(OPOSTAGE
RECORD OF MONTH
Cost of Stamps in U. S. for
December as Computed by
Postmaster General.

The people of the United States
spent 73,500.000 in December fol-
postage stamps, according to an an
nouncement yesterday by Postmaster
General Harry S. New. This was ar
increase of $S,500,O00 over the same
period last year.
DEFENDERS mail required 42,646
railway mail cars to transport it, &C
cording to the Postmaster General
who said also that this included an
additional 1,043 cars over the number
used last year.
Despite the huge increase in mail
kilograms from postmasters all over
the United States We're unanimous,
said the Postmaster General, in the
declaration that the mails had been
moved with greater dispatch this
year and with less congestion than
ever before.
Heed "NIail Early" Injunction.
The public has at last been induced
TO mail early" Mr.. New said, thus
distributing the load over number
of days instead of concentrating it in
a last-minute peak on Christmas eve.
Another reason given by the Post
master General for the fast moving of
this years mail is the fact that
scientific study has brought about an
ALLEGATION of postal employees at exact
points of load, with an auxiliary force
within call for the handling of any
emergency.
Postal revenues, said Postmaster
General New, have long been recog-
niZed as an accurate gauge of the
Nations economic pulse. An impov-
erished people could not afford the
enormous expenditure made this year
for gifts or even for the postage of
these gifts.
From the standpoint of postal au-
thorities, the revenue in this depart
ment, said the Postmaster General.
was an unprecedented one in postal
history. Money sent abroad this year
reached the unparalleled total of
$7,406,652, an increase of $S10.161, or
more than IL per cent, over the like
period in 1925. The increase is ex.
pected to pass the million-dollar mark
when reports come in from San Fran
cisco, Seattle. Laredo and Ell Paso.
Indications of Prosperity.
One of the best indications of the
Nations prosperity, according to
Postmaster General New, is the fact
that no section of the country shows
a uniformly low rate of gain in De.
cember postage revenues. Although
the South is admittedly suffering from
the effect of low cotton prices, reports
from postmasterS in cities such as
Jacksonville, Oklahoma City and Dali
las, while per cent lower than last
year, still do not indicate that there
was much let up even there in Christ.
mas buying.
On the other hand, many cities Of
the South reported an increase in
revenues. Among these were Bir-
mingham, Memphis, Charlotte, Lees
burg, Spartanburg and many others.
