Government Ownership of Post Office Buildings Proposed
Washington December 4 Postmaster General Work renewed the campaign for government ownership of post office buildings in his annual report to Congress.

He noted government owned buildings would be tax free for the government while rentals fund landlord taxes and asserted that borrowing to build could be cheaper than renting, sometimes at 4 to 7 or even 10 percent in certain cases.
