Once in a while it wins a VICTORY, as when it defeated transportation monopolies of the United States and established the federal parcel post system. But never for one day since that memorable battle have the defeated rail- roads and express companies ceased their cunning attempts to regain what THE PEOPLE HAD SEIZED AS A RIGHT. The latest strategy of this combination is in the form of an amendment to the parcel post law which is designed to hamstfing the whole parcel post service of the United States! Congressman Madden of Illinois intro- duced it. It fixes an arbitrary limit of 50 pounds on all parcel post shipments.
