Baytown Postal Workers React To Eisenhower Veto

Baytown Postmaster M L Neal said he and staff were surprised only minimally by President Eisenhower vetoing the Post Office pay bill. He noted Congress did not appropriate funds, and the Post Office operates at a large yearly deficit. Neal said postal workers would have welcomed the raise, but few Baytown clerks expected passage now. He warned a rate rise on magazines and other items is needed to stop losses, with January expected to bring further debate in Congress. The second item: Tokyo reports U S Fifty Regimental Combat Team to be moved from Korea to the United States this month as part of Far East redeployment.

Mail speedup to Baytown arranged by postmaster

Baytown Postmaster M. L. Neal arranged an earlier Houston to Baytown mail run to speed up delivery to Baytown households. The change moves a Houston departure from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m., allowing letters from Dallas Austin Fort Worth Waco and other Texas points to arrive the same day for home delivery. Neal weighed tradeoffs, sacrificing some inbound mail from New Orleans and other eastern points to ensure faster Texas mail reaches Baytown residents.
