PARCEL l*OST PROPOSITION
The first annual report of the In
terstate Commerce Commislon on
“Statistics of Express Companies in
the United States," shows that base
express rates for distances under
fifteen hundred miles are six dol
lars or less per hundred pounds;
also that sixty-five per cent, of the
mlleago operated by express com
panies lies east of the Misyouri River
says Bannister Merwin In articles
ntitled “The Common Sense of par
cel Post,’ in •’Success Magazine.”
Doe* that look as if the Government
would lose money on a parcel post
carrying all packages under eleven
pounds at a rate of eight cents a
pound? * The express companies wax
fat on less. I could add estimates
for other shipments which the Gov
ernment might reasonably be ex
pected to handle with an extended
parcel post. But after all these
estimate* are only estimates.
The main facts are: That an ex
tended parcel post means extended
postal business. That we already
have the organization and machinery
to handle an extended parcel post
with merely such additions of men
and equipment as are justified by
the volume of traffic.
Isn’t that enough? Does the par-
i poet proportion look so dan
gerous. after all?

ages in Buying From Us.

essary for each purpose, that yo.i will buy the best materials even
cheaper than you would the other kind somewhere else.

timate before you buy. ^
