BULK filllMASM I
MAIL MUST BE
EN several telephfme card parties
were held last week end tol
The bulk of Christmas
must be in the post offices by
December 1 this year if deliver—l
ies on time are to be assured, ac-
cording to Smith W. Purdum, Sec-
ond Assistant Postmaster Gener-
al. Mr. Purdum is responsible to
Postmaster General Frank C.
Walker for smooth and efficient
air and railway mail service.
Unprecedented wartime demands
on the postal and transportation
systems, plus a prospective record
volume of Christmas mailings,
were cited by Mr. Purdum as
I necessitating earlier mailings than
E
i
l
: lines,
ever before. “It is physically im-
possible for the railroads and air
burdened with vitally im-
portant war materials to handle
Christmas mailings as rapidly as
in normal times,” Mr. Purdum
said. “If the bulk of parcels and
greeting cards are held back un-
.til the usual timeithe Period of
about December 15 to 23—vthey
.simply cannot be distributed in
‘time, and thousands of gifts will
reach their destinations after
Christmas.”
270 Mile Train
In 1941; about 21,950 mail cars
were required between December
12 and 24 to deliver Christmas
mails—enough cars to make a
ltrain 270 miles long. This year,
i
l
l
l
the extra cars needed to move
holiday mails are largely being
used by the armed services, and
a severe shortage is in prospect.
The postal service uSually bor-
rows about 2,500 trucks from the
Army and other government agen-
cies, and rents about 10,000 from
private owners, to handle the
Christmas mails. This year, it will
be extremely difficult to obtain
enough of these vehicles to meet
even a substantial part of the
need. The Army needs its own
trucks and private owners are re-
luctant to let someone else use
their tires.
Railroads Cooperating
Railroads are cooperating by
converting some hundreds of steel
box cars and similar equipment
for mail transportation, and Jo-
seph B. Eastman, Director of De-
fense Transportation, has ordered
that unnecessary travel be cur-
tailed to the limit during the
holiday season. But these meas-
ures cannot assure deliveries of
mail;

Spurred by the knowledge that
total war has always increased
the spread of tuberculosis, the
county seal sale chairman for the
tuberculosis leagues in Washing-
‘ton with their hundreds of volun-
teer workers, have planned and
organized an intensive campaign
to bring the Seals and their mes-
sage to every one before Christ-
mas, according to Mrs. Methesda
B. Buchanan, of Seattle, execu-
tive Secretary of the Washington
Tuberculosis Association, state
sponsor of the sale.
“World War I taught us," said
Mrs. Buchanan, “that the great
increase in tuberculosis resulting
from conflict is not so much am—
ong the armed forces as among
the civilians. This places the prob-
lem squarely before the voluntary
county and state tuberculosis or-
ganizations and challenges our
best educational efforts.
“Quickened to action by this
knowledge as never before," con-
tinued .Mrs. Buchanan, "county
chairmen and committees through-
out Washington have launched the
annual sale of Christmas seals for
funds to finance a. grim battle
required to supply needed stocks
of these materials for war produc-
tion. The public is asked 0.1 and
after November 16, 19—12, to bring
all worn and discarded washed
women’s and misses’ silk and ny-
lon hosiery in the following classi-
fications to the retail stores:
(a) All silk
(b) All nylon
(c) Mixture of silk and nylon
(d) Mixture of silk and rayon
(e) Mixture of nylon and rayon
(f) Mixture of silk and cotton
(g) Mixture of nylon and cotton
Under the hosiery collection
plan, directed by the General
Salvage Section, Conservation Di-
vision, War Production Board, col-
lection centers should be set up in
all retail stores having women’s
and misses' hosiery departments.
Stores should be prepared to pro-
vide containers in Which the cus-
tomers can place their washed
worn and discarded silk and nylon-
hosiery. Retailers are further ask-
ed to place display cards on
hosiery counters close to hosiery
collection depot containers. Retail-
ers are also asked to publicize this
salvage campaign in their ads.

They are asked to feature in every I this early in the week, whether

,store has a hosiery collection de-
any increase here.
“The campaign against tuber-
culosis,” she concluded, “is recog-
nized by authorities generally as
war work of vital nature. The
success of the fight in 1943 de-
pends upon the sale of the Christ-
mas seals Which are now available
in every locality. There is no one
who can not actively participate
in this phase of home defense.”
Due to an error some Shelton
residents have received two sets
of Christmas Seals. The
chapter asks them' to return one ration,
l
pot in its hosiery department.
What retailers Should Do With
Old Hosiery: On shipments where
the weight exceeds 100 pounds—
(a) No sorting or grading of
hosiery is required.
'(b) Pack “as is” in‘ standard
containers wherever possible. Each
container when packed and ready
for shipment should weigh from
100 to 300 pounds.
