Small' Towns to Get
Better Post Off ices
Washington (Science Serv
ice) - Better post "office serv
ice is in store for small towns
as well as big cities. - - -
Some automatic mail-handling
machines now on display
here in the post office depart
ment's building are destined
for ultimate use in communi
ties of 5,000 population as
well as 5,000,000
I At a recent news conf er
. ence, Postmaster General Ar
thur E. Summerf ielcUcited in
particular a parcel post ac
, ceptance machine for use in
towns where the post office
department now considers it
unjustifiable to keep a man
on duty .'round the clock. ...
. This machine, one of .21
postal improvements on ex
hibit, could be on duty day
land night. -You simple put
the parcel in the machine on
' a scales platform, dial the
,zone : number the parcel is
being mailed to, punch in how
much 'insurance you want, put
in. your, money and get your
change. The machine does
the rest and your package is
mailed. -Automatic
Vendor '
Another machine that may
find widespreadVse. through-
out the U.S. is ah automatic
vendor of money o r d e r s .
Another vendor sells stamps,
postal .cards, , envelopes and
stationery. .
Mr. Summer field's an
nouncement that a new, fully
automated post office is sched
uled for Oakland, Calif., to
handle West Coast and Pa
cific-going mail, is part of the
post office department's crash
plan to 'catch up" with the
present and foreseeable mail
situation.
He said U.S. post offices
handled 61,000,000,000 pieces
of mail last year and double
that volume is foreseeable.
Meanwhile, until recently,
Congress had made no ap
propriations for new buildings
since 1938. The department is
now getting three new post
office buildings ;a day and
expects ; to be getting six a
day by the end of the year.
Ldck Box Service
Mr. Summerfield foresees
many "self - service post of
fices," which would offer lock
box service, and contain patron-operated
mahines.' These
proposed post offices could be
unattended, but serviced
about four times a day by a
nearby main station, he said.
" Bigger post offices may get
such highly automated equip
that can read typed or printed
addresses with an efficiency
of 75 per cent, machines that
can face and cancel 3,000
pieces to 300 .destinations an
hour. Each machine: is con
sidered a "module," and by
combining the proper number
number of modules, any mail
volume can be handled, he
said.

By RAYMOND LAHR
Washington (UPD - Gov. Or
ville L. Freeman of Minnesota
is pushing a new tax gimmick
which promises to stir up in
terest even if it doesn't go
very far very fast.
His proposal would encour
age states to rely more on state
income taxes and less on sales
taxes and similar levies to
cure their budget troubles.
It would virtually force
those states still without in
come taxes to adopt at least a
minimum tax on income. -
Chief objective of the plan
would be to help state legisla
tures levy whatever taxes
were needed without fear of
scaring away industry. But
Congress would have to coop
erate by making a major and
expensive change in the fed
eral income tax system.
Freeman starts with the pre
mise that there is no end in
sight from pressure for bigger
state budgets and higher tax
es. But he sees legislatures
functioning under a "paralyz
ing fear" that they will create
a tax climate unfavorable for
industry. .
He proposes to erase that
fear, by providing a federal in
come tax credit for state in
come taxes paid. The present
federal income tax law allows
the deduction of state income
taxes from personal income
before the tax is computed.
A tax credit is subtracted
after ' the taxr" is computed.
Thus the Freeman plan would
allow the state income taxpay
er to subtract, up to a certain
limit, his state income tax
from his federal income tax.
A state without an income
tax would be forfeiting the
revenue to the federal treas
ury because its citizens could
not take the tax credit.
Congress did agree to a sim
ilar plan 35 years ago when
it allowed tax credits for state
inheritance fax payments.
Freeman threw his proposal
on the table before a tax panel
at the recent governors' con
ference at San Juan P.R. It
got a cold reception.
As Freeman outlined its sDe-
cifics, the proposal in effect
would transfer $4 billion a
year from the federal treasury
to the states.
It has been attacked as an
interference with the rights of
state legislatures to levy taxes
as they wished. He replied
that it would give states great
er financial strength to handle
state responsibilities which
otherwise would be taken over
by the federal government.
Quietly but significantly,
Caution Urged in 'Benevolent' Groups
Persons solicited for mem
bership in "benevolent so
cieties" are urged to proceed
wtih caution by Don McNeil,
manager of the Jackson Coun
ty Chamber of Commerce.
Eleven 'such societies are
currently the subject of an
action filed by Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton.
"It is ; my opinion," Mc-.
Neil saidr "that until this
matter has been completely
cleared through -the Attorney
General's office, we can only
suggest to inquirers that they
proceed with caution. Lack of
information based upon fail
ure to investigate often leads
to misunderstanding and disappointment.",
"" SP 2-9937 Jt"3.
'
Thornton s action came
soon after a Multnomah Coun
ty grand jury had given the
benevolent societies a "clean
bill of health." -
The Better Business Bureau
in Portland has stated that it
has received complaints from
persons who joined benevo
lent groups, "seemingly under
the misapprehension, that they
had purchased insurance coverage."
Gov. Robert Smylie of Idaho
suggested that the tax credit
plan be studied by the Federal-State
Action committee.
Smylie iS co-chairman of
that committee, which repre
sents the governors' confer
ence the national administra
tion. It was set up two years
ago in response to President
Eisenhower's appeal for the
states to take back some of
the government functions
which, have drifted to Washington.
