Penny to two cents and postal shifts eyed by Congress
The House passed a bill to replace one cent postal cards with two cent stamps to cut the Post Office deficit. If enacted by the Senate, the plan could raise about 130 million dollars yearly, yet still leave a multi hundred million dollar annual loss. Also noted were second class mail losses and potential savings from the Hoover Commission reforms. A separate measure would incorporate the Girl Scouts by act of Congress, while a letter recounts the origin of the motto In God We Trust on Civil War era coins dating to 1864.
