A HEAVY If AIL'STOnr.L
R6quire Each Patron Along the Wlwe Delivery Routes
without taring.
Mr. Chairman. I wish toBay, lew
words, supplementing the remarks of
my friend from Tennessee, respecting
tne rumig oi wie jrosT-umce JJepart-
ment, that patrons p the rural free
deliverj service hall not, make their
own boxes, but most buy " boxes put
on the market by the 'trusts. I am
not making remarks for home, con
sumption, either; I want to appeal to
the Members of this House to pass a
bill allowing the patrons of this ser
vice to make their own boxes br have
them made. Gentlemen, why should
these people not be allowed to make
their own boxes? The Post-Office
Department could say what kind .of
a box should be made, and the pat
rons of the service could easily have
boxes made conforming to such re
quirement; and they could have boxes
made just as good as those sold "by
the trusts, jnst as good 'afrjfipse the
Postmaster General requires them to
age, at about one third of the price
they are compelled to pay now.
A few weeks ago I went into a
hardware store where a large number
of these boxes were on sale, and I
wasjtold by the proprietor of that es
tablishment that boxefi whi.K fta va
.i i iMjrmmt sma
comelled to sell for tlMK'wS
coali nafelHc3 tn'
1 1 .SCpor oneSass of boxeslndll
for tiiother, but that either kind of
box shown could be made for about
M cents. I am told that J worthless
sort of box is offered fori 50 clhts,
but the point I am tryingto mairfis
this: It U wrong to allow the Posi
Office Department to say to the pat
rons of this service, "You must use
boxes prescribed by this Department
or you shall not have your mail de
livered to you. You shall not make
your own boxes. You shall not c m
ploy some one else to make them, but
you must buy from manufacturers
who enjoy the favor of this 'Depart
ment or you shall be denied the bene
At of a service which
J w j v ma W
largely pay for.' This, Mr. Chair
man, is in effect what we allow the
i'ost-Office Department to say, and I
leclare to you it is wrong.
Why shouldtft the people be al
lowed to provide their own boxes in
accordance with reasonable require
ments? Will any gentleman rise
here and now and give one single
reason whyjfoey should, not J ac-j
w.uwu tun privueger
Iet the truth come out. Is it not
because, Jtfce Departmlnt wfihefflb

believe lhatemyaelf seen ; lhalf la'
dozen different shapes ttTtxel jjf
wat is necessary is a box hich will
keep the mail dry. I gee no reason
why wooden boxes may not be used,
i will not press that suggestion.

wusta can put their rjwaesk

probably buy.ronv the" trusts; jbut in
