NEEDED TO HANDLE PACKAGES
Registered mail matter has been seriously delayed
at the General Postof1ce recently and the postal
authorities say that the present staff in the Reg
stry Department is insufficient to handle the large
quantity of matter passing through their hands.
Complaints first from private individuals and
downtown merchants that some registered packages
mailed in Christmas week had reached their
destination until five and six days after they had
been mailed in this city. When asked about the
delay yesterday both superintendent Fuller OF the
Registry Department and First Assistant Post
master Morgan admitted that the registered mails
had been delayed since the holidays. but said they
did not think the delay had been longer than three
or four days. This was attributed by both these
officials to an inadequate staff which they declared
crippled this branch of the service.
