Post Office Asks
P.P. Rate Increase
Washington UP — The Post of
fice Department has formally
asked the Interstate Commerce
Commission to approve a 17.1 per
cent increase in parcel post rates,
designed to put a fourth class
mail service on a self-sustaining
basis.
Postmaster General Arthur E.
Summerfield announced the pro
posed advance in early October.
He estimated the department was
handling parcel post at a loss of
88 million dollars a year.
Postal officials said the propos
als submitted today would bring
in about $88.8 million more an
nually.
Postal laws require that parcel
post service pay for itself, since it
competes with privately operated
express services.

YULETIDE CUSTOMS
(Continued from page 8)
supper on Christmas Eve. Utterly
delicious Italian coffee cake—rich
with raisins, citron and peel—is
also favored in Italian and other
knowing families at Christmas
ime.
No chance of St. Nick leaving
2ape Cod out on his travels! He’s
particularly fond of Suspiros, a
cookie made of meringue and al
nonds. He finds it offered to him
vith a glass of wine at holiday
:ime by Portuguese families around
Provincetowm
Youngsters who grow up leani
ng something of Danish customs
lever forget to remind their par
ents to serve rice pudding with a
single almond in it on Christmas
Eve. The child who finds the al
mond in his portion receives an
extra present.
Fruit cakes are something extra
special1 if there's a Canadian
around. The' tops of the cakes are
covered with a thick layer of mar
zipan (almond paste) and then a
thin white frosting goes over. St.
Nick, chubby and fat, knows this
holiday custom adds calories, but
he’s of the firm opinion that
Christmas is no time for weighl
watching.
