bill 10 Increase
Mail Rates Due
In House in May
By ROBERT K. WALSH

~ AhODGANA IA w hA0kA
A bill to obtain $462 million
more in postal revenue by rails
ing rates on first. second and
third class mail seemed prac-
tically certain today to be re-
ported out early in May by the
House Post Office and Civil
Service Committee.
Ending its open hearings this
afternoon. the committee will
begin closed session work on
lsuch legislation as soon as the
House returns from its Easter
recess April 20. Chairman Muir
ray. Democrat Of Tennessee,
announced.
| Several Democratic and Re-
publican members predict-and
a generally favorable attitude
at the hearings indicates-that
a majority of the 25-member
committee will vote to send a
measure to the House soon
thereafter. Whether the bill will
Ibe passed by House and Senate
this year is another question,
The House passed a somewhat
similar bill last year.
Postmaster General Summer
fields struggle with the House
Appropriations Committee over
his request for an additional SAT
million for the 1857 fiscal year
overshadowed his less dramatic
but persistent efforts in behalf
of bill to boost postal rates.
Bill Would Fall Short
The bill likely to be recon-
mended by the committee next
month, would fall about 5000
million short of overcom-
ling the departments estimated
deficit Of 1854 million for the
1883 fiscal year. Even when II
became fully operative within
-four years it would bring in less
than $3.50 million.
| In any event the stage is al
ready set for controversy in the
committee and later in the
House on the pending bill. This
measure differs in the following
respects from the bill passed by
the House but not by the Sen
ate last year:
The first class mail rate would
go up cent on letters anc
lpost cards, Wilhelm are
cents and 2 cents respectively
and on airmail. currently
cents an ounce. The 1856 bill die
not raise first class mall rates
Second Class Rise
| Second class mail, mainly
newspapers and m agazine S
would be increased IS per cen
annually for four years on pub
fishers pound rates. and one
eighth of a cent in the minimum
piece rate. The 1856 bill woulc
have made a 80 per cent aggre.
gate increase on reading mat
ter and l20 per cent on advertis'
ling matter.
Third class mail such as ad-
vertising material and small
parcels would be increased
cent on individual piece mailings
Q cents a pound on bulk mail,
ings. one-half a cent on the
minimum piece rate on bulk
imailings. another half-cent or
those mailings after July /. 1859
ia 2-cent increase on each piect
of odd-sized matter. and $40 q
year more in the bulk mailing
permit fee. The 1856 bill had
only one increase OF a half-cent
on bulk mailing piece rates
/ Books would take a 2 cent:
increase on the first pound and
IL cent on each additional
pound. The proposed increase in
the 1856 bill was only on the
first pound. The present bill also
provides a 2 cents a pound in.
crease on controlled circula-
tion" publications weighing up
to eight ounces, and l cent q
pound extra on those above eight
ounces.
