Johnson Signs Bill Expanding Parcel Post Limits
President Johnson signed a measure raising parcel post weight limits to 40 pounds by 1969 and increasing size limits to 84 inches by 1971. The reform, aimed at boosting USPS revenue and modernizing the service, includes a possible future tax discussion and a National Zip Code Week to speed mail handling. Shippers protested the changes amid debates over postal economics.
