Receipt stamp system eases postoffice postage for papers

A New York World report describes a new stamp system for weighing and paying postage on newspapers at offices. Stubs from receipt books will record sums paid, with four adhesive stamps covering all postage on any package. The plan, approved by Postmaster General Jewell and General Barbour, aims to cut publisher labor and save thousands yearly.
