WASHINGTON, Nov. a-Polltlcal cam

age through the malls accounted, accord

ence between a postal surplus and n pos
tal deficit for the last fiscal year, end
ing Juno 90. An account of franked mall
forwarded for congress, the executive
departments and other government Insti
tutions shows that poitago nt the ordi
nary rate on this mattor would have
netted the government nearly 120,000,000.
About 3,ffi0,000 ot this would have been
paid on political documents.
The postal service handled during the
year 310,240,000 pieces ot franked mall,
weighing 61,377,000 pound This was
three-eighths per cent of the total weight
of nil mall carried. During the presi

even of one complete political campaign
book, all of which had been made techni

master General Hitchcock .who has long
urged that restrictions should be thrown
around tho use of the franking privilege.
said today:
"Tho unusual expense entailed upon the
postal service through the transmission
by mail ot tho great amount of political
matter during tho primary campaign
created a temporary deficit for the first
time In two years, the total expenditures
for the fiscal year ot 1912. aggregated
$243,625,000, ' whllo the total revenue
amounted to 1245,744,000. Had it not been
for the cost of carrying frunked political
mall, the postal account would have
shown a surplus of more than $1,000,000
Instead of a deficit of $1,781,000. And this
surplus I have Indicated would have "de

compensation of postal employes waa In

of S8,000,000.'

close of tho last fiscal year, tho postal
service once more Is on a self-supporting
basis. On November 1, tho latest dnto of
ava'lable figures, it was found that the

expenditures for tho current year. Mr,
Hitchcock expects this condition to bn
