Mr. Mason wrote to Representative James R. Jones expressing his concerns about the postal system and the increasing postal rates. He mentioned an essay in Time magazine that discussed the issue and questioned whether the postal service should be self-sustaining or subsidized by the government. Mr. Mason urged Representative Jones to consider these factors when voting on legislation related to the postal service. Representative Jones responded, thanking Mr. Mason for his thoughts and informing him about H.R. 8603, which provides subsidies to the United States Postal Service. Representative Jones promised to take Mr. Mason's opinion into account when representing the citizens of the First District.
