A Foolish Fraud.
Orleans Times Democrat

New Orleans Times Democrat
"You would be surprised" said {
Post Official recently, IF you could
know how frequently stamps are used {
second, or ever a third time. And what
is the most surprising thing about it il
there is no profit for a person using s
stamp the second time, as it require,
more than two cents worth of applica
ton and ingenuity to cleanse a stamp
but the loss to the Government is yer,
considerable. l would be content IL
receive a sum equivalent to that stolen
from the department every year in this
way for my salary. Post Office clerks.
by long practice, become very familiar
with the appearance of good and baC
stamps.
They acquire perhaps the same de.
gree OF ability in the detection of the
irregularities as do clerks who handle
money, but in large Offices there are sc
many letters AMI the work of eancellino
is OF necessity so rapid that very few
chances are offered for detection. It is
only when letters are deposited in Of
noes where the mail receipts are small
that there is any considerable danger OF
detection in using stamps a second time.
But the use cannot be profitable pack
ages OF heavyweight letters having suf-
tciently large postage stamps on them
to justify their cleansing for a second
use are subject to a somewhat rigid
inspection and fraud can be detected.
AS L said, however, the use of smaller
stamps a second time is large enough
to make hole in the department funds
