MIGHT REDUCE
THE COST OF
LIVING
Despite ihe opinions to the con
trary, Assistant Postmastei Rufus
darner believes that the parcel post
I will be the nians- of lowering tl il
of living to a slight extent. He ar-
g'tes that if the prevailing rates of
express hae been reduced all the
way from 4urt lo 7 1-2 per ceni by
'the introduction of the parcel sys-
j tem, there niu.it be some reduction In
the cos: to the ultimate consumer.
It Is his belief that with the t se
j of telephones, some of ihe business
' now being done by the commission
merchant Will be clone l the farm
er direct to the consumer
on explanation he said that with
Ihe parcel post St is possible for th'.
consumer to telephone lo a farmer
for cf,s and products of the farm and
have the eggs delivered to ihe door.
I It is not necessary for the farmer
j to carr. ""hi. products to the inar
i ket. aeli ihem to the dealer, who In
turn tells them to the consumer
As indicative o the interest the
governmenl is taking In its employes.
he points to the new law which goes
into effect March 1 whereby the
: working day for till employes ? ill be
tight hours ottlv for six days of the
week. To those clerks who must work
on Suuciay a dav off will be given
! some other day or the week.
