examining the American system of
handling the foreign mails, which is
the most perfect system in the worldi
1 1 is possible that they will be takeri
west to see the operations of the postal
systems in the other cities in St. Louis,
where the trolley car service origi
nated, in Chicago and Cincinnati.
There are thirty-eight countries in
the postal union, and the mail from
more than 200,000 local post offices is
handled in the international system.
The United States alone receives
82,650,000 for foreign postage each year
and pays out less than that sum for the
service. The international mail is car
ried at a profit, while the domestic mail
is curried at a loss ol sd.U'J.),()!iO a year.
The fact that there is a profit in hand
ling international mail is the text of a
good many postal reformers in Eng
land. We collect $2!!0,0!)0 a year froni
recipients of letters from foreign points
on which postage has not Injon prepaid.
Ihis is equal to one-tenth of the sum
received for prepaid letters. Of the
sum received on letters hound outward
the United States gets only a share.
Often there is actually a loss to
this country in forwarding n letter to a
remote point. Every country through
which the letter passes collects toll
from us on these letters. On the letters
received not fully prepaid we collect
double postage, and the entire amount
belongs to us. We have no reason,
then, to complain of the number of let
ters which come to us unpaid; yet the
double postage i.i a penalty intended to
be a constant reminder to the people of
the necessity of prepaying postage. In
spite of the penalty, one-tenth of the
foreign mail received in the United
States is not fully prepaid. Probably
this is because the man who sent the
letter is not subject to the penalty.
1 he chief question to be considered
at the congress of is'.)7 is the proposi
tion to make the intermediate nations
handling a letter transport it for noth
ing. 1 Ins proposition is made in the
interest of .simplifying the accounts of
the postal service. Under the conven
tion now in force the nation by which
a letter is forwarded pays to each inter
mediate nation 2 francs per kilo for all
mail in-transit. This increases mate
rially the cost of forwarding letters to
distant points. For instance, a letter
to 1 urkey will go from New York to
London, then to Helgium or Holland, to
(icnnany, to Austria, to Hungary and
then to Turkey. A kilo is two and ono-
lift 1 pounds or thirtv-flve and one-
fifth ounces. Although the postul
union curries, u half-ounce for 5 cent.
the average of letter-weight is leg
than that maximum. The estimates of
the postal union are made on a basis of
three letters to the ounce. Therefore,
'i fnines, or ;!.a cents, will carry Itm let
ters through one intermediate country.
On 10(1 letters to Turkey the United
States post olllee department Would tut v
s.O cents to each of the inf ennediate
