Er The increase was a result of rising inflation, ^ College Station Postmaster C.L. Matcek said. w| “Everything we use, both supplies and ser- |yites, has gone up tremendously. The price of ■soline has at least doubled since our last rate Brease three years ago,” Matcek said. *||‘Tin afraid we’ll have to ask for another raise wljtbin a year because increasing inflation will Ht this one up,” he said. | “It seems high to send a letter to Bryan for 18 cents,” he said. “But people can also send a letter to Hawaii or Alaska for the same price. ” James Nix, window technician at the main Bryan Post Office, said the postal service feels it needs 20 cents as the new postal rate. “But I don’t foresee that getting through anytime soon,” he said. “Maybe next year.” New purple non-denominational “B” stamps were sold beginning March 16 to allow distribution of stamps to post offices in advance of the Postal Service Board of Governor’s deci sion on the rate change, Matcek said. “Then no matter what the board decides, the post office will have stamps on hand for the change,” he said. “You never know until the last minute what the new rate will be. The board may not grant the entire increase.” The “B” stamps are only for mail within the United States. Foreign countries will not accept them because the stamps are non- denominational. Both Matcek and Nix said there may be problems in vending the new purple stamps. The stamps are only printed in sheets, not in coils. “We’ll probably have to package them and sell them in the vending machines in packets of five or so,” Nix said. Nix said it will also be difficult to sell the remaining 15-cent stamps. The last rate increase was in May 1978. At that time, the orange “A” stamp was issued, Nix said. 1981 ELEPHANT BOWL SPONSORED BY WINGS & SABRES AND B-CS JAYCEES PROCEEDS TO GO TO JAYCEES FUN & FROLIC SUMMER CAMP FOR THE HANDICAPPED 2:00 p.m. Kyle Field Sunday March 29 TICKETS: $1.00 IN M.S.C.
