PosToFFICE DEPARTMENT CHANGES.
Division of Correspondence To Be Dis
tributed Among Other Bureaus.

Washington, Feb 1O-A change in the admin
istration of the Postoflce Department will be-
come effective about Friday, when the division OF
correspondence. attached to the Office Of
the First Assistant Postmaster General. will be
divided and distributed among other bureaus of
the department
Frank H. Hitchcock. First Assistant Postmas-
ter General recommended the change in his
annual report, and it has been approved by
Postmaster General Cortelyou. Commenting on
the proposed change, Mr.. Hitchcock said:
1t is OF the highest Importance to people who
use the mails that this change should be made
considerable amount OF purely legal work now
devolying upon the division Of correspondence

General for the Postoftice Department. This

to tho Availability of alleged obscene scui.rilous

decisions as to the delivery OF mail tho owner

of answers to inquiries concerning the CONSTRUCT
ton TO be placed upon postal laws and reGula-
tons.
All OF these cases require careful study and ap-
picauon Of the law and an exact and compre-
hensiVe knowledge OF many branches Of the law
They should fall properly within the province
OF the principal law officer of the department.
one function now exercised by the division OF
correspondence belongs appropriately 70 the
Third Assistant Postmaster General. This is tho
enforcement OF the statute relative to the limit
OF weight OF man matter. IN the present situa-
ton, ii is almost impossible to determine where
the jurisdiction OF the Third Assistant Postmas-
ter General ENDS and that Of the First Assistant
begins. Experience has demonstrated the IN
desirability of divided responsibility in such
cases.
Another function of the division of CORE
spoudence to DO transferred Is the management
of the box rent and key deposit business This

The distribution of the division of correspond
