THE SEABOARD AIR LINE AND

a lengthy statement of his railroads

the Associated Press. Mr. MolDe
claims that Ihu postal officials have
unfairly discriminated agninesi the
Seaboard and whie ullowiug olh r
railroads much latitude in the way
of hauling ‘franked stuff' they have
seen fit to draw the lines very
tight’on the 8A L. Again, he says,
that after the weighing had been
completed and lie had been so noti
fied, a lAmtuptian of same was inp
properly instituted,after the summer
schedule had gonu into effect.thr ru
by caueing the Seaboard a loss of
credit to extent of one thousand
pounds of mail matter. In concluding
Mr. Moßee score* the Postmaster
General as follows*
We have had no notice from the
postef he department to the contrary
that the weights were riot correct,
and are entitled to our pay under
tho legal method of computing
weight and their sworn statement
of tin} correctness of the same.
“ The published statement
alleged to have be *■ authorized by

ing and libelous, and and I am
prepared to court a full, free, fair
investigation througout. with furth
er investigation of tlier linos,inclu
