Congressman Mondell testified before the Committee on Post Office and Post Roads calling attention to unfavorable attitudes at the Fourth Assistant Postmaster General's office toward improving rural mail. He noted only a few new lines since two years, total cost about 2500, while many routes were cut or reduced. He warned hundreds in Wyoming lack adequate facilities and urged liberal funding for rural service, stating Congress intends reasonable mail for all citizens.

The administration had promised reform but ran a near twelve million dollar deficit last year as rural routes were trimmed.
