MAY BOOST P.O. RATES FOR YEAR WASHINGTON, Jan. 2—temporary increase in postal rate effective for a single year, appeared today as a compromise solution to the administration's problem of financing the $68,000,000 wage advance to postoffice employees. Under the plan, administrative leaders would materially amend the postoffice department's new rate schedule in the Sterling bill which would place the burden on rate increases upon American newspapers and magazines. The compromise would sharply reduce the department's recommendation for increases on second class rates which apply to newspapers and publications.

Permanent changes could be made by the next congress, after sufficient time had been allowed for thorough study of the rate structures."

They also contended that the Sterling rates did not take A. Bevillard ESTABLISHER 1912 ANAHEIM IGNITION DEPOT 218 So.
