Postmaster Announces Was - 1111158 Centerapiated at End of War. The British Postmaster-C.0mga1, aypeaking at a meeting of the Row- land Hill Benevolent Fund, at the Mansion House, recently, said that 35 yrs ago 53,000 people were employ- -sod in the Post Office, but now the sattmber was close on 250,000. "I hope," he went ere "that the Penny Post will continueorever, but I also hope that my name will not 'become celebrated as the Postmaster- iGeneral who had to take the retro- grade step of abolishing the Penny 'Post. What with the greater expense In every direction, the decreased staff, and the immensely increased amount •ier postal matter to carry, it is most difficult to have the General Post Of- -tee business managed in a satisfac- tory manner. "This question of the abolition of the Penny Post has beeu under ser- ious consideration more than once :since I assumed the position of Post- master -General; but so far we have 'keen able to devise some means of ,getting round the various difficulties. and tarrying on with the Penny Post, and I hope that forever it will be earried on without any alteration. "To my mind it is very doubtful whether any increaie in the postal •eba.rge would be followed by a sub- stantial increase in revenue. I do not ravish my name to be connected with such a retrograde step if it is possible to avoid it, but rather with making advances, in extending the .activities of the Post Office in other •directions. I sim quite sure there are many directions --such as aerial posts -in -which textension is possible -without in any way interfering with priyate enterprise. It is intended, as soon as the military position will ad- mit, to institute -international aerial posts between Lehdon and the various principal capttala of Europe." - • • - - • _ • --• It Works!
