To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The proposed law would pay about 98 per cent of the pay on the basis of ''space authorized" by the Postmaster General and only about 2 per cent on the weight of mail actually carried. Although the Government fixes the postage rates on the weight of mail to be transported, it Avould seek to pay the railroads on a dif- ferent basis. The new basis — space authorized — would be deter- mined as to its quantity by hundreds of local postal officials through- out the country, and would be a matter of j...udgment having no direct relation to the essential service performed, which is the transporta- tion of the mail itself. While the proposed plan claims to be " scientific, " it is contended that it is absolutely unscientific, because it ignores the vital element, which is the amount of traffic carried. Car space is without signifi- cance unless one considers the character, weight, and bulk of the load it contains. NO DEFINITE PERIOD OF AUTHORIZATION. The proposed law does not provide any definite period for the authorization of car space.
