loo,ing after his district. The Judge had
an interview with the authorities in re-
gard to the establishment of a summer
pcStoffice at Healing Springs. The re-
suits We're very satisfactory, and Judge
Rhea feels that there will be a postcfilce
established there in few days. The
usual red tape has to be unwound. but
that Is practically all that stands in the
way.
yhe member from the Ninth also looked
up the question of having a rural free
delivery route inspector sent through his
district to pick out some new routes that
he wants established. He was told that
there might be some delay in this, as the
inspector was in the Ninth District only
two months ago. and as there was only
one inspector for the State OF Virginia
he could not be sent back until some OF
the other districts were looked after.
