Postal Service Wins Stay to Allow 13 Cent First Class Stamp
A federal appeals court stayed a lower court ruling and let the Postal Service implement new postage rates nationwide. First class letters rise from 10 to 13 cents for the first ounce, plus 9 to 11 cents for each additional ounce, with other classes and postcards also increasing. The court may review merits later, but the stay keeps the higher rates in effect to offset an anticipated 1976 deficit of 2.6 billion dollars.
