BILLION-DOLLAR SIZE FORESEEN FOR P. 0. Service Next Year to Need $638,- 860,000, Says New to .In- dianapolis Convention. By the Amsociated Press. INDIANAPOLIS, September 25.—The day when the Post Office Department will spend a billion dollars a year is not far distant, Postmaster General New told members of the National Associa- tion of First and Second Class Post- masters Tuesday at the opening of their convention here. The Postmaster General disclosed that revised estimates for the fiscal year 1926, to be submitted to Congress in December, will call for $638,860,000 for the postal service. That is $25,000,000 more than appropriated for the present fiscal year of 1925, which began July 1. “If no new obligations are put upon the service,” said Mr. New, “I am sure it may be safely predicted that receipts will very closely approximate the expenditures. If new obligations of major importance are created, con- siderations of just ordinary business prudence suggest an upward readjust- ment of certain rates to at least ap- proximately meet them. ‘“‘Postal receipts in the last three vears have grown more than $18%,- 000,000, s0 that total receipts of last year reached $572,000,000." The spread of towns and cities, due to the inflnence of the automobile, is increasing the burden of the postal service. Gen. New pointed out, mak- ing additional carriers and equi ment necessary. Since March 4. 19; there have been added 17,994, and 1 substations and stations established.
