Washington INS report that the House Appropriations committee backed higher postal rates in a 1857 appropriation bill. The package would fund the post office, treasury, and tax court at 3,618,699,000 for the coming year amid a 470,000,000 deficit. President Eisenhower had requested larger totals for each agency and urged increases in first class and airmail rates along with second and third class charges. Committee chair Tom Murray said he supports rate hikes but expects Congress to reject them.
