AIl-Ouf Promotion
SweIIs Lomb Sales

Last spring, the American Sheep
Producers Council put on an in
tensified promotion progr m in
California to get the public to buy
more lamb. The proof of the sue
cess of the lamb promotion was
undoubtedly in the eating.
BY May Is, the program was 8
lambs developed because of the ex-
ira consumer demand. Packer buy
ers jumped in to outbid each other
for the short supply, moving the
price up from IL cents pound to
% cents in a weeks time.
The theme of the promotion was
"Milk-Fed Spring Lamb" The mot
to was: All lamb is good, milk
lamb is better. 1t was a saturation
program with thousands of an
nouncements in all directions =
radio, TV, billboards, chain stores,
packers, independent retailers,
restaurants and hotels. The ap-
proach and appeals were aimed di-
rectly at the consumer.
The lamb promotion manager of
ASPC concludes it was an un-
qualified success.
Actually, the West Coast states
normally consume only about 229o
of the nations lamb while the
Northeast and New England states
consume 479o. The states around
the Great Lakes region account for
about 1870. Now, other regional
specialized lamb promotion pro-
grams are shaping up for the fu-
ture.

periods, 1t is delivered by the
postman on days when first class
mail is light,
Second and third class mailers
help take up the post office slack
and thus contribute measurably to
the wages of postal employees. 1t
is for this reason that Congress
has seen fit since the days when
Benjamin Franklin was Americas
first Postmaster General to give
certain classifications lower rates
than first class mailers who have
every right to expect the very best
service the post office can pro-
vide.
In spite of the fact that pub
fishers feel they already are pay
ing their own way, particularly
since absorbing three rate in
creases in three years, the House
has voted to add one cent per
copy to newspapers and magazine
rates. For many newspapers and
magazines this increase can mean
the difference between profit and
loss, between life and death
The irony of the situation is
that Communist propaganda--lit-
orally hundreds of millions of
pieces-moves through the mails
free of charge. The only restric-
ton the Murray bill would place
on continued movement of Red
material is to bar it from the
mails if the Attorney General
finds it to be political propagan-
da" But who is to say what is
political" if it serves to warp the
minds of the nations young?
Unquestionably, the Senate will
not railroad the House bill
through without careful consider
alton. Senators know that more
than 80 national publications and
scores of small newspapers were
forced out of business during the
past ten years, due to skyrocket-
ing costs, of which postal rates
we're an important factor They
know, too, that literally thousands
of employees were thrown out of
work when these publications fail
ed Everyone who believes in a
free, unfettered press should tell
their Senators:
KILL THIS DEATH SEN
TENCE.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1962-03-08
The American Way

Many attempts have been made
in many forms over the years to
gag Americas free press-Without
notable success to date.
But now the House of Represen-
tatives has passed a bill that can
effectively silence important seq
ments Of the press forever This
is the postal rate bill sponsored
by Rep. Tom Murray ID. Tenn
which ostensibly has nothing to
do with censorship.
If it becomes law, however, it
can bring about a deep and abid-
in silence in many areas of the
nations communications system
currently the finest in the world
through a death sentence for
publications which cannot absorb
excessive postal hikes.
That the Congressman knew the
dangers inherent in this bill is at
tested to by the fact that they
agreed there would not be a roll
call vote Every Congressman fear
ed that if he had to stand up and
be counted he would arouse the
ire Of many of his constituents
and particularly of those he might
be legislating out of business.
Rep. Ralph f. Beermann r.
Nebrl made no bones about what
he termed this sudden get tough
policy of the Administration. ...
that again is toughest on American
private enterprise"
In this postal BILL Rep. Beer
mann continued, we are leopard
izing a very important segment of
American business-the free press
notice from advertisements in
newspapers during the past week
that both businessmen and their
employees are worried about
whether or not magazines and
small newspapers can survive an
other set Of postal increases. We
all should know that they are pay
ing twice what they did for post
age 10 years ago"

users generally recognize that the

Of mail boxes: it gets special,
rapid, secret handling and the
post office must make every effort
to deliver it no matter how many
times a person has moved, or re-
turn it to the sender.
Second and third class mail get
none of these preferences. News
papers and magazines must pre-
cancel their postage, sort them by
state, municipality and even zone
and then bundle and sack them.
They must be delivered to the
post office in their own trucks and
by their own employees. Some
publications must be delivered to
the post office of destination:
others to mail cars on the railroad
siding
When newspaper, magazine and
business mail reaches the post
office of destination, it is sorted
by mail clerks during off-peak
