ONE C01I POSTAGE
Claim Made That It Would
Only Help Mail Order
Houses Get Business
The proposition to recommVnd one
cent drop letter postage was sut down
on last evening at the monthly meeting
f the Commercial club. The National
lliniuber of t'omciuree asked the Salem
rguniv.ntiou to exercise its opinion as
to whether ono cent post ago for drop
letters was advisable, and it (lid, aft
er listening to tho eloquent plea of Wal
tor H. Denton, in which he pictured the
diro results wnicli would follow, if the
mail order houses wero to get all the
floating business by means of drop let
ters at the rate of one cent per drop.
Ono cent postage wns opposed by an
unanimous vote, and the .National Cham
ker of Commerce will be informed of
how Siilem butducss men feel about it.

tho past year.
The financial report, as read by Man
ager Ivnu O. Daniel, was most encour
aging. Instead of the customary de
ficit, tho manager's figures showed that
the club was novw running nt a monthly
expense several hundred dollars less
than formerly, and that with average
fair luck tho club would have about
200 to its credit by the first of June.
This was cheering news to the faith
ful who attended tho meeting especial
ly as they had been accustomed to hear
ing reports with tho balance on tho
wrong sido of the ledger. And for this
reason, tho opinion vas general that
$300 was about as much as the club
could well afford to give towards the
Cherry fair.
