Morgan awaiting disposition by Postmaster General

Santa Claus letters The committee will hold a
meeting on Friday afternoon at the Hotel Astor to
formulate plans. It will answer directly many
OF the letters from the little correspondents pos
sible. and the others will be sent philanthropc
persons charitable organizations. In this way
all OF the letters will be answered satisfactorily. OF

the children make their requests by mail simply
stimulate the childish belief in Santa Claus. In
other instances. however there is good oppor-
tunty for large hearted philanthropy. as the follow
