In attaching 10 the last postoffice appro~

pended an order OF the department. Thss
order was issued last June and directed
that before the lat OF May, ASS. all rail-
way mail employees should remove TO

sary, because at the time the order was
issued there were about ], 300 OF them In

they worked. When there was an accident
or anything else that required emergency
men those who were on leave and away

caped extra duty, and II fell upon those
living on the route. OF the 1890 who were
living off the lines where they worked
l about 800 have been notified by the depart
ment that they will have to move theii
homes TO the point requested. Probably
