President Truman has described
all of the newly authorized postal
increases as inadequate to cancel out
the continuing Post Office deficit,
which he estimated would reach
$670,000,000 in the coming fiscal
year.
In his annual budget message in
January, he recommended prompt
further increases in rates generally
to yield another $500,000,000 in rev

have not yet been submitted and
most Congressional leaders agree
that it is unlikely that further rate
increases will be voted this year. I
