) Makes Strong Protest A strong protest from the printing fraternity throughout the country is being waged against the government printed envelopes. If the government did the work at its own print ing office it would not seem so "raw." But the government finds that it cannot print the envelopes as cheaply as a cor poration can do so, and even so they are furnished to the cus tomer below actual cost. The postofflcc department, with the consent of the govern ment, has entered into a con tract witlv a single large concern for the printing of return cards on stamped envelopes. The post office branches take the order of each individual buyer of stamped envelopes and also the order for printing the return address in the corner of the envelope. The postoffice department then, ac cording to its contract, provides the one large concern with the stamped envelopes, which arc subsequently forwarded to the individual buyer. The concern holding the contract is relieved of all shipping charges and thus is given a competitive advantage which the small printer is unable to overcome. Printers in gen oral are not claiming the right to print corner cards with the individual address left blank They admit that it is the gov ernment's right to have these printed wherever it sees fit. It is against the printing of the individual addresses, no matter in what city they may bo, by this one concern that the print ers are protesting. Ah condi Hons exist today the govern ment is not alone computing against the small printer by en tering his field, taking money out of his town and diverting it into the treasury of one concern but it docs not even permit him to compete. It has entered into a contract which gives one nrinl ing plant the solo right to print individual corner cards on stamp ed envelopes no matter whore the individual may live.
