It is hard to believe that the government does not know what various branches of its postal service cost, and hence it cannot know what charges to impose to make ends meet, but that statement coming from the postmaster general himself must be accepted as fact. That is why his first step in de ficiency exterminating will be the creation of an efficient accounting system. His revelations are staggering. For generations the public has believed that it was getting its postal service at rock bottom cost only to learn at this late dale that nobody knows the actual cost of delivering a letter or a postal card. The private citizen likes to think that the government can operate the post office belter than a private corporation could, but I where is there a private business that operates with a dofi-l cient accounting system? I Postmaster General Krown pi-oposes to show congress on ' what classes of mail and other posloffice services the gov-! eminent, is losing money that it may revise the rates accord ingly.
