Repeal of zone law aids small publishers’ business tone
The article argues that a few small publishers initially opposed a law but found it beneficial. It says repeal would force Uncle Sam to carry periodicals at the same rate from New York to San Francisco as Buffalo to Pittsburgh, undermining volume discounts and hurting community merchants. It warns publishers and mail order houses would gain unfair advantages if rate equality is not maintained.
