Newspaper Postage Bill Sparks Reader Concern
The Publishers' Committee of Washington notes a Loud proposed postal rate bill affecting newspapers. It would require stamps on exchanges, ads, and campaign copies and may bar free county circulation. Authors argue current policy yields low rates and supports wide public education, warning against double costs for readers.

The speaker cites biblical passages from Matthew Mark Isaiah and Joshua to illustrate the need for preparedness and the Lord's direction in public affairs.
