Postal Clause : ウィキペディア英語版
Postal Clause

Article I, Section 8, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, known as the Postal Clause or the Postal Power, empowers Congress "To establish Post Offices and post Roads".〔http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html〕
==History==
The Postal Clause was added to the Constitution to facilitate interstate communication as well as to create a source of revenue for the early United States.〔(Records of the Federal Convention )〕〔(Commentaries on Blackstone ) by St. George Tucker〕 There were some early disagreements as to the boundaries of the Postal Power. John Jay, in a letter to George Washington, opined that the postal service should not be burdened with the responsibility for handling newspaper delivery, and also suggested that the Post Office be placed under the supervision of the executive branch (a suggestion which later led to the creation of the Post Office Department).〔(Letter from John Jay to George Washington, 21 September 1788 )〕 Thomas Jefferson feared that the postal service would become a source of patronage and a waste of money. Jefferson also expressed doubt at granting Congress the power to designate post roads, as he considered road building to be a state responsibility.〔(Letter from Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 6 March 1796 )〕
