An Interesting Comparison
The rates charged fpr services performed by the Post Office are at all-time highs. The Department continues to operate on a massive deficit basis. Yet criticism of the quality of those services is approaching hurricane dimensions. As armies of irate customers have been charging, mails are di md packages severely damaged on what am«»ur.:> a wh< ilesale scale. . • • ’ • ’ Varied reasons are given for th.is critical situation. Increases in the volume of business done is one. More important, apparently, has been the failure of the Post Office to adopt modern methods of handling mails and parcels. The Postmaster General is quoted as saying. “We have developed signs of hardening of the p -stal arteiir.-.'’ ' . ’ Mans are under way to curt* at least Department’s more serious

Meanwhile, it's interesting-to compare Post Office troubles with the service achievements accomplished by a private enterprise which must compete directly in the parcel-carrying business. That enterprise is REA Express. A few years ago, it seemed close to the verge of extinction. Then management aggressively, overhauled its services and facilities from top to bottom. Vastly more efficient, dependable and simplified methods of doing business both here and abroad were adopted. The result is that REA is now a dynamic, going concern enjoying an everexpanding patronage. • The point seems to be that when proare essential, private enterprise can move far more quickly and effectively than can a government agency. -
