SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS. 



The undersigned committee would urge 

 every reader of this paper to write to 

 the member of congress for his district, 

 asking him to support H. E. 7874, pro- 

 posed by Mr. Henry, of Connecticut, for 

 the establishment of a parcels post and 

 for the insurance of all mail matter 

 against loss or damage, which law, if 

 passed, will prove of vast benefit not 

 only to our profession, but to individuals 

 and business people in all lines. Impress 

 upon your representatives the fact that 

 we, as taxpayers and business people, 

 are the bone and sinew of this great 

 Republic, and as such demand our share 

 of the benefits to be derived from the 

 passage of this bill. 



Insist that as our representatives they 

 are in duty bound to deliver us from 

 the greed of certain corporations which 

 have fed upon us for so long a time and 

 which have shown by their underbidding 

 the postofifice department on registered 

 second-class matter that outside of this 

 class they are exacting from the public 

 a profit of from 150 to 175 per cent per 

 year on the actual express investment, 

 and in many cases are collecting charges 

 which are from 300 to over 20,000 per 

 cent of corresponding freight rates. 



Unless this bill is passed the present 

 postal regulations virtually protect this 

 carrying monopoly in its excessive ex- 

 actions and it is due to us who have 

 contributed so patiently and so long to 

 have our wishes considered in the passage 

 of this bill. 



Prompt action is necessary; therefore 

 write at once to your congressman and 

 also influence your business friends in 

 other lines to do the same and our con- 

 certed efforts may be crowned with sui - 

 cess. Signed, 



H. il. Altick, 

 Elmer D. Smith,
