ANNOUNCES
The treasury and post office depart-

with receipts below $40,000 annually,
it was learned Wednesday.
This means that a number of towns
near Lancaster for which new build-
ings were contemplated when Con-
gress passed the $230,000,000 Elliott
bill last session will go over until
additional appropriations are auth-
orized.
It also means, however, that other
cities in the $40,000 class and above
in receipts, those known as first class
offices, will have a much better
chance of being included in the new
program which the two departments
will submit to Congress in December.
The cities which are thus favored
include Upper Darby, Conshohocken,
Jenkintown, Schuylkill Haven, and
