Gerber, Jr. City Clerk, City of St. Paul 386 City Hall St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear Mr. Gerber: Thank you for forwarding me a copy of the resolution passed by the City Council of St. Paul, requesting the support of the Minnesota Congressional delegation for continuation of railway mail service in our area. This office has been in continuous contact with the Post Office Department for some time on this matter. Our objections have further resulted in the Minnesota Railroad and Warehou� Commission having ruled against removal of the Soo Line Trains 9 and 10. Arrangements have been made to meet with representatives of the Post Office Department tomorrow to present this action to them, in further attempting to convince them that their original proposal and suggestions are most inappropriate. The most worthy views presented will be help- ful to me in meeting with representatives of the Post Office Department.

St. Paul, Minnesota Dear Mr. Gerber: This has further reference to your letter of May 13, and the Resolution of the St. Paul City Council in protest to the discon- tinuance of the tra.nsportation of mail on passenger trains by the Post Office Department. , As I mentioned in my letter to you of that date, I submitted the Resolution to the Postmaster General for consideration. His reply has now been received, and I am enclosing it for the information of the members of the City Council. It is to be noted that although the Post Office Department indicates that there will be continued utilization of railroads for mail distribution whenever this method appears suitable, authority is still retained to find alternate mea.ns of transportation and distribution of mail whenever service will not be impaired and postal costs can be lowered. incer y yours, B�RT H.

My position has consistently been that the Post Office Department cannot be concerned only with its sphere of activity and must be aware of and responsive to its wider role in the over-all economy of the lhiited States. tiVhile the Department may be saving itself a few dollars, it is causing untold economic losses and disloca.tion in other sectors of the economy. This argument, however, seems to have little effect on the Post Office Department, as they are going ahead with their mai.l closings just the same. Please be assured that I shall continue to fight to maintain effective postal systems without creating any further employment problems. With all best wishes. Sincerely yours, � Jo n . Blatnik, M. C.

May 21, 1965 Mr. Robert B. Gerber, Jr. Office of the City Clerk � Bureau of Records 386 City Ha11 _ St. Paul, Minnesota Dear Mr. GErber: Thank you for your letter of May 13, in which you enclosed a reso- lution of the St. Paul City Council calling on all Minnesota Senators and Representatives in the Congress to protest and oppose any action on the paxt of the United States Postal Depaxtment to discontinue the tra.ns- portation of mail on passenger trains. Several months ago, I contacted the Post Office Department in oppo- sition to the discontinuance of mail service on certain trains operating in the state of Minnesota as I was very much aware of the impact any reduction on service would have on the affected co�unities. Unfortunately, the Department still decided that mail service would be discontinued on certain trains, effective around July 1, 1965• The Depaxtment based its decision on the supposition that equal or better postal service could be provided by other transportation with a resultant reduction in operating costs. Although I a.m continuing to work diligentl,y to have the Post Office � Department reverse its decision, �I cannot say at this time if action to this effect will result. - . In order that the Post Office may be aware of the resolution of the St. Paul City Council, I am providing a copy to the Postmaster General for his attention. Regretting that I cannot provide a more favorable report at this time, I rema�:n in erely yours, AL P .

I am both deeply concerned and aware of the effect this .discontinuance will have on the people of Minnesota and I concur completely with your resolution. I have and will continue to voice my vigorous protest , to the Postmaster General. Enclosed is a copy of my latest letter of protest and request for public hearings . You will note that the protest letter is con- cerned chiefly with Soo Trains 9 and 10. This is because it was necessary, from the standpoi nt of , gathering specific information in order to prepare a case, to concentrate efforts. If we gain a favorable response from the Post Office Department, we are reasonably certain that all Minnesota trains will be effected. I will keep you fully informed of any further developments in the matter. Thank you for your eftorts and interest. With all good wishes. Sincerely, � ��� �� WALTER F. MONDALE � � : ' ?
