PAGE 21 THE AMAR1LLO JULY 11, 193B. POSTAGE RAH HIKE URGED TO PAY DEBTS OFFICIALS PREPARE TO PRESS CLAIM FOR HIGHER FIRST CUSS RATES (Rr The Associated Press) July ced that an increase in postage rates is the only feasible.way of lifting the world's biggest public utility "out of the red," postal officials arc preparing to press their'advocacy of a higher charge for carrying first class mail. When Postmaster General Brown submits his annual report to congress in December, enactment of legislation authorizihE the increase is to be the most urgent recommendation. The believes a rnte of 2 1-2 cents an ounce on first class mail would balance the department's bnd- gct for the present. Assistant Postmaster General Tilton, generally regarded as the financial expert of the department, said today an increase in the rate on Ict- tcr mail is the only solution of the deficit problem.

"We see no other way out," Til ton said. "If the public or congress sees one, we shall be glad to have them point it Last year's postal deficit amounted to 560,000,000. Tilton estimates it will $60,000,000 this year. The present loss in handling the mails is now ft charge against the general funds of the treasury. Brown and Tilton are of tho opinion the postoffice department as a public utility should be self-supporting, the cost of operation to be borne- by those it serves rather than the tax paying public.

Tho present rate on first class mail has been in effect since 1885, a situation without parallel. Tils on said, in any other lino of business. If postage rates had been increased to the average level of commodities, Brown explained, the first class rate today would 1-2 an ounce. If the increase were in the same ratio as wages, the letter rate today would be seven cents, he said. Meanwhile, the world's biggest single business is growing at a tremendous rate.

Last year it handled more than 27,000,000,000 articles and the increase in the number of articles every year is more than a billion.
