One Cent Letter
Postage Possible
Says Burleson
WASHINGTON, August 28.—Post
master General Burleson today told
the National Association of Postmas
ters’ convention that if revenues from
second class mail were increased “ex
travagance for useless political serv
ice” in the rural mail system were
curtailed and payments to railroads
for mail transportation under the new
space basis were reduced, he could
jfoimmend to congress next year that
letter postage be reduced to one cent.
The postmaster general, making to
day’s principal address before the con
vention, praised congress for the
space provision for railway mail pay
in the postal bill as “the first step
toward settlement of railway mail
transportation.”
“If next year we can have those
who use the second class mail privi
lege pay a fair part of what the serv
ice is worth, we can send a recom
mendation to congress for the first
step toward penny postage in this
country. If I can keep down useless
extravagance, not postal but political,
in the rural service, I could promise
sniaroanrarcansme^Hroejcci'Lcaucii u a. i
you now that I would take the first
step toward penny postage.”
