Prominent Sedalia and Marshall business leaders petitioned J. D. Farmer for a direct Sedalia Marshall mail service. A star route could save four to ten hours, with one or two daily round trips and faster Chicago and eastbound mail. The plan would absorb Longwood and Blue Lick routes and rely on C and A connections at Marshall. Farmer indicated government interest and will file a written report for decision.
