The postmaster be- | lieves a rate of 21 cents an ounce von first class mail would balance the department’s budget for the present. Assistant Postmaster General Til- ton, generally regarded as the finan- | cial expert of the department, said today an increase in the rate on let- | ter mail is the only solution of the | deficit problem. “We see no other | way out” Tilton said. “If the public {or congress sees one. we shall be | glad to have them point it out.” | Last year's postal deficit amount- ed to £50,000,000. Tilton estimates it will run over $60.000,000 this year, The present loss in handling the | mails is now a charge against tle general funds of the treasury. Brown |and Tilton are of the opinion the | post oftice department as a public utility should be self-supporting, the cost of operation to be borne by those ot serves rather than the tax- paying public. | The present rate on first class mail | has been in effect since 1885, a situ- ation without parallel. Tilton said, |in any other line of business. It postage rates had been increasd to the average level of commodities, Brown explained. the first class rate {today would be 3% cents an ounce. If the increase were in the same ratio as wages, the letter rate would be seven cents, he said.
