LETTING LIGHT INTO THE GEN
ERAL DELIVERY,

The plan OF doing away with IN,
clandestine character of correspon-
dence carried on through the medium
Of the general delivery window of tho
/ postoffice was preached some months
ago by the writer Of an article for a
popular magazine. He asserted that
q high percentage OF the correspon-
dence carried on in this way was ILL.,
gitimate, and that it was a mistake
under the circumstances for the gov
eminent TO provide facilities whereby
operators OF shady business schemes
might be- assisted in prcying upon the
public and amatory messages might

a well-known official called atten-
ton 20 this article at a convention OF
representatives OF Uncle Sans mail
service. and Postofhce Inspector Stuart
made light Of the matter, affirming
that Of the business at the general de-
livery of the Chicago postoffice the por-
ton which was above suspicion Of i'm
propriety amounted 10 IS per cent. For
some reason the inspectors views seem

Among the reasons for the new re-
quirement Of the Chicago postoffce he
gives the following:
EVIL comes from the delivery OF
thousands of letters weekly to girls

mail under fictitious names at the gem

plains that IF, after "A card has been
