Senate Cloakroom on Postal Service Public vs Self Sustaining
U S Senator J Glenn Beall discusses a Senate Post Office hearing on whether the Post Office Department should be a public service or self sustaining. The Citizens Advisory Council urges public service while Postmaster General Summerfield argues for self sufficiency with a rate policy and cost reporting. Beall notes 55 percent of Marylanders favor higher postal rates to cut deficits, 30.5 percent oppose, and the rest undecided.
