the two new leather mail pouches of
considerably larger capacity than those
formerly used, which were used yes
terday for the first time by the mali
carriers of the House and Senate. The
new badges were distributed among the

nate officials have been equipped with
these new badges by the President Of
the SeEate and the Speaker of the
