Suffice it is an aggre-.tio- n of civil service and political appointees who may be ifted around or disposed of at will civil service or no. It is of the manner in which our politicians conduct this eat public service a manner which would call down the rath of the gods were it a matter of electric lights, power, ater, telephone or public carrier we would speak. Those who are responsible for the management of the stal department apparently understand but one thing; if e service does not show a profit at the end of the fiscal year e public will make up the deficit thru additional taxes. Recently, however, only a few months ago when the cry as loudest to balance the budget and the public seemingly as taxed to the limit, our Washington conjurors unhappily t upon the happy idea of increasing the postal rates. The s mail would be increased from two cents to e on ree cents and they thus would experience a 50 per cent creased return. Likewise, airpost rates would be hiked om five to eight cents and another gain would be exper-ncefirst-clas- d. What happened? On paper it appeared the postal department not only ould be able to pay its own way, but probably slice up a ice dividend melon at the end of the year. It sounded even ?tter. But, one thing the postal officials failed to consider, increased rate was a tax; a tax which could be collected be each om person using the mails; but, no one could be forced use the mails. s prompt-- f Much matter which formerly was sent fourth-clas- s chan- and third the second, was diverted into whereof mads the use the els; many people have eliminated ver possible.
