Ex-Postmaster General Sues Board Of Governors WASHINGTON (UPI) Former Postmaster General Paul Carlin has sued Postal Service's board of governors for allowing "a cancer to develop and fester" by not stopping a member from trying to steer a contract to a Texas firm. A hearing was scheduled for Monday in U.S.

District Court on Carlin's suit, filed Friday, that seeks a temporary restraining order to prevent the board from hiring a new postmater general until his case is heard. A Postal Service spokesman said Saturday officials were aware of Carlin's suit but, "We haven't seen the suit or read it, so there will be no comment." Carlin was ousted by the governors in January and replaced by Albert Casey, who announced at the time of his appointment that he would serve only until August. In his complaint, Carlin accused former board Vice Chairman Peter Voss and governors Ruth Peters and George Camp of pressuring him and other postal officials to steer a contract toward Recognition Equipment Inc. of Irving, Texas, without competitive bidding. Voss pleaded guilty last month to charges of embezzlement and receiving kickbacks in the case.

Officials at the company have denied knowledge of the kickback scheme, as have the governors. The governors, Carlin's complaint charges, "allowed a cancer to develop and fester and closed their eyes when symptoms of decay and corruption manifested themselves."

"Some people might wonder why had it done at Memorial Hospital in Logansport when my choice of hospitals and orthopedic surgeons was unlimited. "The answer is quite simple. Bigger doesn't always mean better. From my personal observations, all departments at Memorial surgery, anesthesiology, recovery room, postoperative floor; nursing staff, and physical therapy were equal if not the best of all those considered.
