SOME POSTAL FACTS.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE PENNY STAMP,

Homo day the British nation will rise to s Bause of the gratitudo it owes to a great mov. and moko Jaznery 10 a red-lotter day of every year. For on that day seventy-one years ago Rowland Hill's much-debated scheme of penuy postage came into operation. It hon heon of untold bonefit to two generations in the United Kingdom. But the postal authorities take no official notice of the anniversary as it comes round every year, and the general public are equally lacking in their appreciation.

This anniversary had a special interest, for it followed closely on the coming of a new King to the Throne, a matter which involves many im.. portant okange in our postal system, changes TJILIWONG; in which King Go rge, as an ardent and ex-

TJIMAHI perienced philatelist, takes the kosmost interest. The most important of these is the lesne of the new stamps. If it were a gestión of more printing they could probably be on the post- office counters in the coarse of a few days or of weeks, but in a gigantic businna like that the Post Office an immense stock of supplies. has to be held, mul it would be foolish and. extravagant to throw aside the immense number of stumps bearing King Edward's likeness which are already in hand: The printing of halfpenny and penny stamps is always going on and that of the other values as the orders m in from different parts of the country. postal authorities are aiming at the introdue tion of the King George stamp in June next, appropriate for the Coronation of his Majesty. They anticip to that by that time they will have exhausted the supplies of King Edward stamps which they now hold, so that there will be practically no wastage.

The

The question at the colour of the new stamps is at présent under disugasion. It is not anti- offmated that any chauge will be made în tău pro- vailing green, red, and blue for the halfpenny and twopence halfpenny stamps, us these coloprs have boon fixed under the Postal Union regula- tions, and any change in them would have die. astrously confusing and far-reaching couser L

ces.

In regard to the stamps of other denomin tions, it is possible that some change of colour with be introduced, but nothing dofluito has yet been decided by the postal authorities.

ན་

The postal reform în regard to selling post- cards at their faco valne," which was recently foreshadowed by the Postmaster-General, hes not yet come into operation, but it is the inten- tion of the postal authorities to isavo such cards at the same time us the now stamps come into use at the Coronation. The referm is intended to apply only to thin postcards and otter-orde, and for the stont posteards the old prices will bo maintained. The decision of the Postmaster- General to sell the cards at their face value has aroused a great deal of criticism in the station- ery trade, where it is felt that the public will no -longer continue to buy plain white curds and put the stamps on afterwards when by paying for the stamps they can get the cards for nothing. Mr. Herbert Samual has readied to seme of those criticisms, and other obj otions have been urgod. but it is extremely improbable thist any change in the original decision will be made. It may be taken for granted that the determination of the Government on this point was deduits. It will bo interesting to watch the effect of the chopening of the postcard on its miles. At present about 18,000,000 thin posteards, and €8,100,000 stout postcards are sold every year, but the steadiness of the furnover year by year has not indicated that the postcard is growing in popularity, or that its increase is commensurate with the ex- pansion of general post-office business. It is expected, however, that when the free-valna cards are on the market un imtaenso increase in their sales will take place.

the

There is little prospect, however, that one reform, which has been ropeatedly urged on the postal authorities, will come into operation this your, and that in the removal of the anomalios at present oxisting between the rates for newspapers and magazines. One of the conditions under which a publication i transmissable under

newspaper post is that it must be printed and published in the United Kingdom, and in sumber at intervals not more than seven days, The question of weight does not enter into con- ideration, and it frequently happens that a bulky "wookly," weighing between two, and three pounds, is sent through the post at the cost of a single halfpeuty. It is strongly felt by publishers of monthly magazines that the seven days restriction should be removed as being of prejudice to their publications, which at present pay at the rate of one ponny for four ouucos. The aggrieved persons point to the magazine post for Canada and Nåwfoundland, and also to the inland system of the United States of America. In the States magazines and newspapers are transmissable at cno cent par pound, but it should be pointed out that the rate has involrad such onorious losses as to swallow the profitson other branches of the postul service, and at the present time the Government at Washington is seriously considering the que tion of modifying the system in order to reduce the deficiency.

The magazine post for Canada and Newfoundland stands at cao ny per pound. Since it was inaugurated in May, 1907, the, quantity of magazines and newspapers sent to the Dominion ins largely increase. It stood at 2,328,000th, já 1903, and in the follow- ing year it had risen to 2,910.0701., and is still bounding upward. It is felt in more than one, quarter that a concession on the postage of home magazines would be un incrasso in postal business, but we have still to wail for that much needed reform.

CHINA SEEKING AN "ALLIANCE.

According to the Berlin correspondent of the Daily Mail, China has been actively on the look- -out for a Europeau ar American alliance for tho past six months. Her dosiros in this direction were whetted by the conclusion of the Russo- Japanese agreement last summer. This Agree- ment is interpreted by Chinese statesmen as the first stop for the partition of the Empire. Chi.. na would have preferred an alliance with the Uni- ted States, into whose arms (said General Yint Chang in Berlin do the eve of his departure for Peking, the Russo-Japanese agreement had *driven" his country. America was considered a less selfish partner than s great European
