Harry j. Maginnis, in a
letter. states that no Govern
ment agency has the slightest
idea what direct-mail adver-
tiSing is or what it does for
the economy and feels GER
tain" that The Star has no
intimate knowledge of Post
Office calculations used when
recommending new postal rates
to the Congress. Fortunately.
Mr.. Maginnis is not loath to
impart to your readers this
information which has so
successfully been kept from
the Commerce Department. the
Small Business Administration
and the Presidents cabinet
council on small business, not
to mention one of the country's
leading newspapers.
Stripped Of the specious
statistics. the facts" offered
by Mr.. Maginnis consist of the
shopworn although generally
unexpressed premise that the
Government has an obligation
to subsidize. through reduced
rates. marginal business enter
priseS which would be driven
into bankruptcy by the sug-
gested economic weaving.
Enlightment can be gained
by piercing your correspond
ent's statistical veil. Mr..
Maginnis asserts that a 2la-
cent third-class rate will
drive out of the mails more
than half of the $4,000 bulk
permit holders" and leaves
the reader to imply, from
happy juxtaposition, a sub
stantial threat to the 4 or S
million whose livelihoods al
legedly depend on this SIS
billion a year business.
Assuming that some-even
one-half of the bulk-mail
users have such economically
unsound businesses that a 212-
cent rate will dry up their
"lifeblood" what thin and
tepid fluid that must bell. does
that mean that one-half of
the 4 or 5 million will be made
jobless or that the take will be
cut to So billion IL the higher
rate becomes effective? The
answer depends on the number
employed by and the percent
age Of business done by these
near-insolvent users.
But are they-the economic
cripples-substantial users of
the third-class subsidy? Not if

This authorization came Fri

sentiment about equally divided.
However, the convention proper
of about 40 delegates took his
report today without a peep.
Decision by September
McMann said he would select
a three or five man committee
shortly and 1t would be instructed
to reach a decision on the open"

Although today's action was
