AIR MAIL CUTS ARE VALID

The Postmaster General has the
power to curtail air mail service
without regard to the attitude of
the contractors, according to a
decision announced by the Comp
troller General.
The Postmaster General pointed
out that numerous extensions had
been made to certain mail routes
recently, and that the department
now has to operate on a reduced
appropriation. Since there is a
right to extend routes, it was ar
gued. there should also be right
to curtail them in the public in
terest.
