Publle Bersten
Until now, the United States has been unable to decide whether it wants to carry the mafi as a public service or have the system pay Its own way. It tries to do both, without doing esther
A 1968 law says postal reve- Due should equal operating costs, minus specified services to be paid for by the Laxpayen as public services, That goal has not yet been reached. Con- greas, which passed the law. Ignored It.
In 1962. for example, Congress Falsed rates $900 million - enough to wipe out, momentnr ly, the operating defleit, But It also raised wages $1.2 billion - enough to bring It right back
In addition, the public ac- vices the department is required to provide are proving Iar more costly than contemplated. In 1960, the frat year money was Appropriated for these Items, it look 531 million. This year the cost will be $594 mtilion, al most half the current deficit
The increase has been so rap- Id that postal offleiuls feel the burden on the public treasury may outweigh any benefit necruing to the public through the low-cost mailingx. The cost Lest service it has to render Ls the delivery of magazines and newspapers of nonprofit organi zalods at an elghth-of-a-cent cach. Thus the department gets penny for pleking up, sorting, transporting -- It could be io Alaska - and delivering eight copies of such material
To Cover Costa
The department figures that for every $1 it collects from the nonprofit organizations It has to take $34 out of the Treasury to cover costs.
"That's not a public service." snys Ralph W. Nicholson, of the Post Office's Bureau of Finance and Administration. "It ta anti- social .**
Commercial newspapers and magazines and bulk-malled ad vertising also are carried at costa considerably higher than they pay, but this & by polley and tradition, not law In thoo- ry, revenue from first-class mal - of which 75 per cent is buenos call - ja to make up the lontes
President Johnson Is making for a $700 million Increase In rates this year, which could produce the long-awaited bal. ancing of accounts if Congress doesn't go beyond the $200-mll- Lon Increase In postal wages he also is seeking, as it well might. For although postal pay has risen about 25 per cent in the last Ave years, the postal em. ploye sttil Is one of the most poorly rewarded workers in the country, Starting pay for @ postal clerk or letter carrier Is $5,331 g year, with a top of $7,- 263 attainable alter 21 years. The starting hourly rate Is $264. and most complaints about postal service can be traced to that figure, Not many people can be found in metro- politan areas willing to work for such wages. The bus company that takes the postal worker 10 his job in , Washington, D.C., starts its drivers at $6,900 a your - a level the postal cm ploye wil reach in 15.years.

& Months Residency
aring the meeting the town ansel called the civil service commission to clarify the resi- dency requirements for new men joining the department. Men must be residents of the community six months when they apply for a civil service ex- amination scheduled only for Greenfield and residents of the state for 12 months. But they Imust live outside the town after a specified period on the force. Cerrato said the civil service commission advised him it is
1-5. Selectman werly, retiring from was delegated to rep- it sectmen during the re- sion work which will last dur- ing the year, assisted by the stay town couns i, police chief and If the Ralph Gordon, news reporter. Chief Murphy declared that it takes more than just anyone to serve as a policeman because of the new complexities of the law and other rigid require- ment. Being a policeman te- quires knowledge in many spe- cialized areas and this key re- sponsibility means the security and protection of the public which is often indifferent to pleas for more pay and other fringe benefits, said the chief.
"The police are soldiers in ev- ery sense," said Murphy.
"When a police officer is killed in the line of duty there are no placards, no sit-ins, no protest rallies and no assault on citizens for the reason the police are concerned with the rights of oth- er people," the chief added. "There is no outcry for a review board conducted by citizens."
Leverett Okays School
LEVERETT - Following an emotional 45-minute discussion, one quarter of Leverett's regis- tered voters approved funding of the proposed $4.7-million Am- herst junior high school by a vote of 61 to 44.
Chr. Clifford Linn of the fi- nance committee said the com- mittee favored Leverett's ap- proving the plan. He said it would cost Leverett the first year for operating and capital cost about $10 for each $1,000 valuation and would level off to about $7 on the tax rate for the 20 year bond.
Arthur Holiday of the finance committee said if voters vote now it will mean a savings be- cause Leverett's share at least has a chance of being. 4.1 per cent, the same as when the agreement with the Amherst Regional School Committee was drawn in 1945.
Chr. Chester Woodard, board of assessors, said the town will be buying more if the town doesn't vote approval now. "Be- cause of the way the trend is going, we will be paying for a building with dollars that will be decreasing in value," he said, "The town will save about $3.50 on the tax rate in 1969 when the school bond is com- pleted on the original building at Leverett Elementary School, and will earn $5 on the tax
rate from the new transmission Line from Northfield to Ludlow."
One citizen felt the center portion of the three unit struc- ture for the auditorium could be left out at a savings of perhaps a half million dollars. He noted the school will be located next door to the Amherst Regional High School which has an aud- itorium that can seat 900.
Another citizen objected to Leverett being handed "the hot potato finst," by being the first town to vote on the building. Pelham, Shutesbury and Am- herst are expected to have special town meetings later this month.
Another citizen said "we are being sold a bill of goods" be- cause the school could be built cheaper - without some of the frills, swimming pool and tele- vision center. He was strongly disturbed by having to accept this building as "The Plan" without an opportunity for citi- zens to suggest changes.
He said there was no oppor- tunity for suggestions at the in- formational meeting Thursday because for each question raised by the public, the super- intendents had an answer.
The discussion was handled by Mrs. Doris Gere, Leverett's representative to the Amherst Regional School Committee.
