scent POSTAGE
RATE WILL STAY,
ADVISES FARLEY
Improving Service t
Be First, He Says

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. l!
(IN.SD.-Postmaster G era
James A. Farley today told thu
annual convention of the Nationa
Association of Postmasters, tha'
the time was not ripe for reducing
the three cent postage rate to two
cents for out-oftown mail.
To some it may seem that II
the management of the Post
Office Department can show a
net surplus of several million
dollars it is time to consider
reduction in the first class
postage rate" he said. How
ever. 1 would advise against
such action.
SERVICE BETTERED
I'VE have done much to i'm
prove the service. We have
STRENGTHENED and made more
effective its facilities, but in
view of the drastic changes that
are being made in transporta-
ton throughout the nation, and
the need for greater speed in the
handling of the mails all along
the line, the Department could
properly spend many more
millions in service improve
ments, and will probably be
faced with the necessity of max
ing such expenditures in the
near future.
It am of the opinion that the
three-cent rate on first-clasS mat
ter for out-of-town delivery is
reasonable. Careful observation
and full consideration OF all
phases of the situation leads me
to the definite conclusion thaC
the thre-cent letter rate should
stand until sue time as we have
accomplished all service i'm
- provements that are necessary,
and until such time as we have
established the postal service as
the ideal employer of labor in
America"
REVENUES SET RECORD
Farley said the postal revenues
for the fiscal year ended June
80, 1887, we're approximately $685.
600, 900, the largest in history, and
about $6O,000,000 in excess Of the
gross receipts for the fiscal year
1886"
Il can say to you with full con-
fidence that when the final au-
dited figures are received, an
ticipate a net operating surplus
of several million dollars will be
shown" he asserted.

Jim watched the inferno with
strained intently as he bent over
Dolly, felt her pulse, examined the
cut above her temple.
SIS she badly hurt?" He asked
the question in a low shaken voice.
II can't tell without an examina-
tion," the inferno said.
Jim moved forward to help the
inferno place Dolly on the stretcher.
Lifting her gently, his throat felt
tight.
"You can give me the name of
her family, I suppose" the inferno
said.
Jim supplied the information. She
looked so small and so still on the
stretcher. He felt as though he had
deserted her when the ambulance
bore her away.
Sergeant McCready turned to
Jim.
docs this car belong to your"
he asked.
i "No," Jim replied.
"Who does it belong to-"
sit belongs to Miss Cecily
Vaughn, officer. T. H. Vaughn
'Meadowbrook.
II thought So" the sergeant's
companion cut in. "I've seen this
car plenty of times on the road. "
docs Miss Vaughn know you
were driving her carr"
The question startled Jim. The
sergeant assumed with such casual
certainty that he was responsible
for the accident. 1t had not occurred
to him that he might be suspected.
II was not driving the car" he
said evenly.
"Who was?"
Jim hesitated for a moment.
Then-"I don't know" he said.
MOP" 1t was the sergeant's COM
panion who spoke. His voice was
unpleasantly edged with sarcasm.
''Well, buddy, what's your story"
Jim told it briefly. He sketched
his position in Mr.. Vaughn's en-
ploy, told of being awakened, OF
running across the fields, of finding
Dolly alone in the disabled car. He
knew, before either of the officers
spoke that they did not believe him.
His momentary hesitation, circum-
stantial evidence was all against
him.
'"That's not an entirely convinc-
ing story" the sergeant said when
Jim had finished
cts as full of holes as a sieve -
his companion remarked. He turned
to the boy and the girl who were
