Los Angeles ...... 64 Thursday 40 charging an extra one cent for locally-delivered letters is run- ning into rough weather in the Commons. New Democratic members, accusing the post office of charging letter writers to help subsidize low postal rates for newspapers and magazines, served notice Thursday . they plan to put up a strong fight. Conservative members were critical too, though their oppo- sition was milder. Target of the attack was a resolution paving the way for legislation which would abolish the special four-cent rate for lo- cal delivery of first-class let- ters. It would be replaced by the normal five-cent rate now levied on inter-city mail. Postmaster - General Nichol- son said the extra burden will fall main y on commercai firms whose mailings account for 55 to 60 per cent of local delivery letters. : "Those firms are not paying their way. They're being subsi- dized by the taxpayers." He said a low local-delivery letter rate had some _ merit years ago when local letters were handed within a single post office. Now a letter could be carried at local rates for as far as 25 miles in some areas such as Vancouver.
