Parcel Post Rates Up in Special Class
The Interstate Commerce Commission raised parcel post rates for catalogues and similar advertising matter and for controlled circulation publications. Catalogue and advertising matter rates climb about 17 percent and controlled circulation rates about 10 percent. The changes add roughly 3.5 million dollars annually to postal revenue, with general increases already in effect since Oct. 1. The postmaster general holds discretion on the effective date.
