REPORT OF THE SECRETARY 45 



it is more economical to send by mail than by freight ; some, like the 

 daily issue of the Congressional Record, because treaty stipulations 

 provide that they shall be so forwarded; and some for the reason 

 that they are for places remote from existing exchange agencies. 

 The total number of packages transmitted by mail during the year 

 was 70,899, an increase of 12,026 over last year.
