M. Martin of Motorola Robert S. Broussard of the Council of California Grower: and Gordon W. Marshall of Pa cific Telephone. Kehoe stated that any bus! ness not now represented in tht MUC probably is missing an op portunity to get more posta service for its money.

He fur ther stated that the prime pur pose of the MUC is to improve service given to business mail much of which has cash value to commercial firm. "Many service improvements can be gained by knowing when the post office dispatches mai to various parts of the country," Kehoe explained.
