Edward Day said Sunday; the government has ! abandoned all hope of resuming twice-a-day mail deliveries because it would cost tod much. Day said there was no great public demand for mail deliveries twice a day to homes and business establishments. "It is almost entirely a budgetary matter,” he said. “It would cost so much money, it'sSjust not feasible to go back to it” The Post Office Department halted twice-a-day deliveries under the Truman administration. Day also said there was a good chance the House Post Office Committee would reverse its decision last week rejecting President Kennedy’s proposal to boost postal rates in an effort to reduce the post office deficit. The committee voted 10-9 to table, and thus kill, Kennedy's request to hike first class letter postage from four to five cents and airmail rates from seven to eight cents. The President also wanted second and third class postage rates increased.
