Postal Hike
May Kill
Sorted Mail
WASHINGTON ---Fear that
the proposed bill to increase
the cost of third class mail
» (bulk, pre-sorted mail) by
250 percent above 1945
rates might price this lucra.
tive post office “customer”
out of the market was expressed by William C. Doherty, President of the National Association of “Letter
Carriers in recent testimony
before the Senate Post Office
and Civil Service Committee.
Third class mail provides
annual revenue of ahalfbillion dollars tothe department, Doherty said. It also
posed a minmum of labor or
handling problems, he added. Third class mail is delivered to the post office in
bulk, pre-sorted by destination and prepaid. It is known
as deferred mail, meaning
it is worked only at slack
time. ;
Doherty expressed his fear
to the Senate Committee
"ifwe price this product out
of the market, there is going
tobe a serious difficulty insofar as our substitute letter
carriers and postal clerks are
concemed, and there will
probably be considerable
difficulty among some of the
junior regulars. "
When re minded by the
committee chairman that
some years ago there was an
amendment in the House to
abolish third class mail, Mr.
Doherty told the Senator,
“Let me say to you with all
the sincerity at mycommand, I sincerely hope that
you donot abolish third class
mail. It might cause considerable work problems in
the postal service, "
