A Springfield report notes many absences and few bills likely to pass besides budget items. It highlights House Bill 3579 on service appointments, praises industry leaders for forming a consumer focused council to police missed or poor repairs, and anticipates a public representative joining the panel to ensure fair discipline without new legislation.
A reader condemns Hyde Park Kenwood Community Conference leadership for sponsoring a May 12 town meeting to oppose world war III. The letter argues the group misuses funds and betrays supporters by redirecting local aims toward antiwar action, accusing leadership of dishonesty and unethical conduct.
Harry Magazine publishers warn they could fold if the U S Postal Service raises second and third class rates by 150 percent over five years. The service cites red ink on those classes while GAO findings show non profits receive reduced-rate privileges at several centers, including Chicago.
The GAO reviewed 10 400 organizations granted second and third class postage discounts. It did not inspect each name but selected questionable recipients from the list. Over 1 000 names were flagged and 115 were found ineligible. These 115 sent over 71 million pieces of mail in fiscal 1970.
The GAO found 115 organizations faced inconsistent reduced mailing rate eligibility across five post office centers. Local officials questioned the adequacy of criteria. In fiscal 1970 the USPS handled over 6 billion pieces of reduced-rate mail with a loss exceeding 53 million dollars. GAO recommends using IRS nonprofit definitions to set eligibility.
After a GAO probe, 27 of 18 month later questioned groups still used reduced rates at one center. The center did not review eligibility of these organizations. Critics say the USPS should fix internal inefficiencies before targeting legitimate users.
