Postal Overhaul
Pacts Urged for
IT PAYS TO EUY AT MflER & FRANK'S-f OR ASSORTMENTS, INTEGRITY, QUALITY, SERVICE AND VALUE
'Wobbly' Areas
WASHINGTON. Feb. It tvSi
at Republican leader Knowland
of California Mid today thai dis
tressed areas should receive pri
ority attention in the enactment
of any postal modernization pro
gram. Knowland told newsmen he
would support the five-cent rale
asked by President Eisenhower on
out-of-town letters, but on two con
ditions: 1. That the 17S million dollars
realized annually in extra revenue
be earmarked for modernization
and that a policy statement be at
tacned aiming the program at dis
tressed areas.
1-Year Tim Limit
t That a three-year time limit
be placed on the five-cent stamp.
Postmaster General Summer-
field told the Senate Post Office
Committee last week the admin
istration did not want any time
limit imposed.
He supported a plan to earmark
the 17S million for improvement of
post office plant and equipment
(or three years. But be did not
mention directing the work toward
areas of high unemployment and.
la tact, said it was not designed
as a public works program.
Knowland said he hoped that a
rate increase bill could be brought
to the Senate floor this week or
toon after.
Pay lac ri ass Bin
If this is done, he said. Reoub-
Bcans probably would not make
any effort to attach rate legislation
to a pay increase bill for the 500,
000 postal employes.
Bills raising the pay not only of
the postal workers but also of a
million classified civil service em
ployes have been luted for Senate
floor action this week.
Sblons Fear
Russ Seizure
Of South Pole
WASHINGTON. Feb. 18 i-The
first congressmen ever to see the
South Pole recommended today
the United States maintain its sta
tion there, lest the Soviets take it
The recommendation came in a
report by a six-man subcommittee
of the House Commerce Commit
tee, On an inspection of Interna
tional Geophysical Year estab
lishments, they Dew over both
poles and went ashore in Antarc
tica. The committeemen said the six
scientific stations the United
States has established in the far
southincluding ens in conjunction
with New Zealand should be con
tinued, though perhaps the loca
tion ef some should be changed.
Tea Meek Expca
Their report said that when the
question of maintaining Antarctic
stations after Dec Jl, the end of
the geophysical year, was dis
cussed by the International Scien
tific Committee in September,
most countries appeared to fed
too much expense would be in
volved. But, said the report. This con
sensus altered rapidly after the
arrival of the Russian delegate."
Saeald be Iartted
The Russian, said the report,
showed on a map where the pres
ent and proposed Soviet stations
were and "expressed the opinion
that while Russia did not wish to
influence other countries to go
ahead if they did not wish to do
so, they felt in such case new na
tions should be invited to carry
en the studies."
The subcommittee said the
United States was the first coun
try to establish a station at the
South Pole. It continued, "We are
ef the opinion that we should stay
there. We are convinced that were
this station to be abandoned by
vs. the Russians would take it
