PRES. LOWELL ACCEPTED

President Lowell has accepted the position on the Postal Rate Commission offered to him several weeks ago by President Taft. Associate Justice Hughes, LL.D. '10, of the Supreme Court of the United States, is chairman of the Commission, and Lawrence Maxwell, lecturer in the law department of the University of Michigan and a prominent lawyer of Cincinnati, is the other member. The commission was created just at the close of the last session of Congress. During the coming summer it will investigate the justness of the proposed increase in the second-class postage rates which is being bitterly fought by the popular magazines.
