TAFT FLATLY OPPOSES PUN OF HITCHCOCK Government Qwncrshlp of Telegraph Lines, Pet Project of Postmaster General, Is Flayed by President in Special Message to Cngress. WANTS RATES ON PAPERS AND MAGAZINES DOUBLED IPrfsldent Writes 50,000 Words on Subject Has Praise for Hitchcock. WASHINGTON", I). C, Feb. 22. Watly deposing povennuent owner ship of telegraphs, the pet project of I Postmaster Hitchcock, President Tnft fl.l -.'.I t'f. i.: - !.- it.. luuuy uirvu ins. vicwrt un mi- imiuui in n sp'ceinliriiosiagc to congress, sub mittinj: the report of the postal com ityision and -approving its recom mendations tlint rates on newspapers and magazines be doubled from 1 to 2 cents n pound. The doubling of second class matt rates, the message snid, will cost the publishers from $7,000,000 to $10, 000,000 more annually. But the in creased rates, he contends will stilt be only about one-third of the cost of handling the matter. .-,0,000 Words. The president's message, with the commission'- report makes 50,000 words one of the bulkiest documents President Tuft hns ever gent to con gress. In lambasting government ownership, the president snys: "I I'lUinot" agree with the recom mendation tlint the telegraph lines bo made part of the postal system. I believe the true principles to be that private ownership should carry on such public utilities under due regu lation of rates, rather than tlint the Dvermuout itself should conduct them. I do not think it is in accord with the best public jwliey thus to greatly increase the body of public sen-ants." ProsidAit Taft removes the sting of bis message, howovcr, by fulsome praise of Hitchcock's administration of the post department nnd by stating tlint he heartily concurs in tho recom mendation of Hitchcock nnd tho pos tal commission to boost the newspa pers and magazine mailing rates. Wants Hates liaised. In its report the postal commission says it costs 4 1-2 cents per pound to enrry newspapers nnd mngnzines through the mail. It says this mail embraces two-thirds of nil mail mat ter enrried, while it furnishes only five per cent of the postul revenues. Both President Taft nnd tho postal commission declare ngainst discrim ination ii'Minst newspapers and mag azines in raising rates, and also in charging extra for bulky advertise ments in magazines. Flat rates of 2 cents a pound tire to be mndo with plenty of notice in advance. This was unanimously ngteed upon by the commission its n solution of tho diffi culty. The balance of the cost of handling such matter is to bo carried as a subsidy in the interest of public education. An extension of the plan to ship magazines by freight instend of by mail and thus decreaso tho carriage cost, is recommended, as is, also, u contintiauco of free country circ" tion for small country newspapers. The commission expresses the bohof that the railroads are charging tho government exorbitant rates fir trunsporting tho mails, and urges ti federal investigation.
