A Big Fared Post Rate Cut.
Postmaster General Burleson's pro-
posals to Increase tho weight limits of
parcel post packages In the first and
second zones from twenty to fifty
pounds to admit books to the parcel
post and to reduco rates In the third
fourth fifth and sixth zones "ore ap-
proved Saturday by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
The maximum weight of parcels to
nil zones boymid the second was in-
creased from eleven to twenty pounds.
Tho approved changes in rates and
weights to bo In effect January 1 1014
follow:
To reduce tho rates for the third
zone from seven cents for the first
pound nnd five cunts for each addition-
al pound to six cents for tho first
pound and two cents for eacn addition-
al pound.
To reduce the rate for the fourth
zono from eight cents for tho first
pound nnd six cents for each addition-
al pound to soven cents for tho first
pound and four ccuts for .each ad-
ditional pound.
To reduco tho rates for tho sixth
zone from ten cents for the first pouud
nnd nine cents for each additional
pound to nine cents for the lirst pound
and eight cents for each additional
pound.
"It seems obvious" says the com-
missioner "that tho scrvicu to the
public will ba prompted by these
changes provided the revenuo from the
service is not less than the cost there-
of. Your experiences nnd statistics
seem to show clearly that the rovenuo
will not ba less than the cost of tho
servlco.
"We can conceive of no opposition to
the Increased weights nnd reduced
rites proposed except from tho car-
riers that transport tho mails. Wo
havo had some objections from them
on tho ground that tho increased
woigbt should not be permitted until
provision for additional compensation
to tho carriers has been made."
It Is provided "that the ratoof post-
ago on parcels containing books weigh-
ing eight ounces or less shall be one
cent for each tiro ounces or fractional
part thereof and on those weighing in
excess of eight ounces tho one parcel
post rates shall applv." This is to bo
effective March 10 10M.
Consent was also given by tho com
mission to tho admission of shipments
of gold gold bullion aud gold dust in
Alaska and to and from Alaska in pack-
ages weighing not moro thnn eleven
pounds. The rata of postage Is fixed
nt two cents nn ounce or fraction there-
of for all distances.
The ohange relating to books Iiob
strongly been urged by oiraulatliig
libraries schools uolleges and pub-
lishers over sluco the establishment of
the parcels post service as the present
restrictive weight limit and rate on
books aro prohibitive to n great extent
except in the case of catalogues
