U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 1723. Avoidance of postage by using lower class matter
Matter of the second, third, or fourth class containing any
writing or printing in addition to the original matter, other than
as authorized by law, shall not be admitted to the mails, nor
delivered, except upon payment of postage for matter of the first
class, deducting therefrom any amount which may have been prepaid
by stamps affixed, unless by direction of a duly authorized officer
of the Postal Service such postage shall be remitted.
Whoever knowingly conceals or incloses any matter of a higher
class in that of a lower class, and deposits the same for
conveyance by mail, at a less rate than would be charged for such
higher class matter, shall be fined under this title.
