Rate Hike Sought For Hauling Mail
Washington railroads petitioned the Interstate Commerce Commission for at least a 45 percent increase in mail payments amid a Post Office deficit. Postmaster General Summerfield pressed Congress for higher postage rates to close the revenue gap, with a letter noting mail rates could rise from 3 to 4 cents for letter mail. The railroads said mail transport costs exceed payments, citing 1952 figures of 319 million earned versus 450 million spent, and warned ICC approval of larger increases may be warranted if evidence supports it.
