The approval was made af ter long-range planning based on extensive research and survey in dicating the future needs of the postal installation at Marshall for a twenty to fifty year period. The blueprint sets up a pattern of plant and service areas which will provide a stable physical in stallation sufficiently flexible to adjust to the severest of econom ic, social and even physical chang es within the Marshall' area. Conclusions and - recommenda tions relating to the new postal facilities at Marshall were based chiefly on the following factors: 1. Population growth, including directional and density trends, and corresponding increases needed in future postal deliveries. 2. Increases in efficiency, and continuing chanees in eauimnent. physical plant, operating tech- njques, and administrative prac- tices. 3. Long-range expansion of the economical base of the Marshall area to provide continuing devel opment toward an ideal future postal establishment in the area which will contribute importantly Ron-;taward making the Postal Service more economical and efficient.
