April 11 Natlon j wide in Its extent is a campaign I which is being waged for the securing I of one cent letter postage, a reform which would save letter users of the I'nited States over 175,000,000 a year. Fifty-three separate bills calling for a one-cent rate on letters delivered in the city In which they originate 'have been introduced tn congress dur ing the present session, forty-four of these being introduced In the house of representatives, twenty-two by : '.its and twenty-two by repub' Cans. In the senate two democrats have presented similar bills, and sev en republicans have fathered measures for the lower letter postage rate. It may thus be seen that the campaign has no political significance, but that it is being waged on behalf of the let ter users of the country in an earnest effort to lower the present high rate charged for tarrying letters. Back of the movement Is a nation al organization known as the Nation al One Cent Letter Postage Associa tion, with headquarters at Cleveland. Charles Wm. Burrows is president, and George T. Mcintosh Is secretary treasurer and general manager. The organizhtion hu-s a large membership in every state In the union, andls be Ing backed by thousands of letter users in the effort to secure lower postage rates. The immediate plan of the campaign is to secure one cent letter postage on localry delivered let ters In all cities and towns where de liveries are marie. Later it is the purpose to secure a general one cent rate. Measles kill over 11,000 American children annually. A Little Blossom the Home To Delight tin. i. i.
