The post office is the one branch of the Government service with which everybody is directly eonceraed. It is the people’s business, and its patrons payfor its conduct in postage, the rates being fixed by Congress. The postmasters in’the small communities of the country ai‘e known as fourth class. There are about 36,000 of them. They are not paid salaries, like all other Government employees; their compensation is based upon percent ages of the value of stamps cancelled on matter mailed out from their of fices. The incoming mail is many times greater than the outgoing, and makes the great bulk of the post masters work, but they receive no pay for its handling. A singular condition exists in this branch of the service. The fourth class postmaster is required to fur nish quarters for the office,’ heat and light it, and buy the necessary equip ment. From a survey of the country, the National League of District Post masters ascertained that 21.8 per cent of the compensation of the fourth class postmasters is expended for these items. A bill is now before Congress that provides for the pay ment yearly of an amount equal to 20 per cent of their compensation as allcwenee for rent, fuel, light and equipment. The fourth class postmasters claim that it is an injustice to require them to donate, out of their very meager salaries, the things necessary to con duct the Government’s business. The people living in small communities are entitled -to good postal service. Few, if any, know the conditions un der which this sevice ig rendered. The salaries of these range from a few dollars up to $l,lOO a year. When 21.8 per cent is deducted from this for the upkeep of the offices, it ap pears that the Government is not dealing justly with the rural com munities. Congress alone can remedy this, and the National League of District Postnfasters is urging that august body to enact the bill now before it. The postmasters are appealing to the public to ask their Senators and Con gressmen to enact this bill. Rural carriers are now given an allowance of 4 cents a mile for equipment main tenance. Granting the fourth class postmasters this allowance would on ly restore to them what they have already spent to maintain postal ser vice in rural communities. The bill now before the House Post Office Committee is known as H. R. 4040. The postmasters would appre ciate any help the public may give them.
