FINES ARE PAID BY
RICHMOND PEOPLE
Many Have Violated One of the
Laws in Reference to
Sending of Mail.
INSPECTOR FLETCHER BUSY
SOME OF VIOLATIONS ARE DUE
TO IGNORANCE AND OTHERS
ARE BY THOSE WHO UNWiT-
TINCLY COMMIT THEM.

A number of Richmond people have
been fined by the government for
sending first class mail at fourth
class postage rates. The fine is $1O
and Inspector Fletcher of Indianapolis
is now here collecting these fines.
1t is thought that most of the fines
are the result of ignorance of the pos.
tai laws. There are more violations
of the law by people sending letters in
a package of tobacco tags than any
other form of mail The tags are sent
away for premiums and people fire.
Quently enclose their name and ad
dress and the premium wanted in the
package, tying it with string and
putting but fourth class postage on
the outside. When these packages
are opened by the government EN-
ploys, the sender is liable to fine.
In the local postoffice number of
fore they were sent away and the peo-
pie notified that more postage was
needed. Lack of time prevents the
clerks from opening oil the packages
and for that reason a number of Rich
mond people have been fined.
These fines generally fall on people
that are little able to bear them and
Postmaster Spekenhier is desirous of
having the local patrons of the post
office understand the law, in order
that they will not violate 1t.
Writing a name on the back OF a
photograph or sending letter with a
photograph, when first class postage
is not paid, is a violation of the law.
and one often committed. Oftentimes
a postal clerk asks the patron con-
cerning the contents of package and
is misinformed by the sender In case
the sender is caught in a falsehood
there is no mercy for him and he will
be assessed the maximum fine
