§ 38. Viscount SANDONasked the Postmaster-General whether penny postage on letters and halfpenny postage on postcards up to a certain hour in the clay, by relieving night and evening pressure and by a better distribution of labour, could be introduced without any financial loss; and, if not, how much the loss would be on that basis?
§ Viscount WOLMERIt has been found impossible to frame any such scheme on lines which would avoid heavy financial loss without causing serious anomalies and general deterioration of the postal service.
