Letters Sent Business Men
About Parcel Post.

The clerical force is busy at the
post Office mailing circulars to all the
business men of Perth Amboy who
are likely to use the parcels post
service to any extent, when that law
takes effect in all the post offices of
the United States, January 1, Post
master w. H. Pfeiffer desires TO
know the extent of business which
the new law will produce.
The circulars explain the law and
give the rates in the different eight
zones. Part of the sheet is taken up
with questions for the business men
to answer concerning the use of the
service and return before or on Det
ember 3. All the postolllces of the
United States are sending out the
question blanks, and after December
8, the postmasters win report the re
suit to headquarters at Washington.
The circular explains that here
after fourth-class, mail matter shall
embrace all other matter, including
farm and factory products, not now
embraced by law in either the first,
second or third class, not exceeding
eleven pounds, seventy-two inches in
girth and width; all of which was
explained in the NEWS November 19
Parcels will be delivered at all free
delivery offices and to patrons resid-
ing on star routes; they may be reg
istered, and accorded special-delivery
service on payment of the usual fees,
and insured to the amount Of $26 on
of five cents. Distinctive
stamps will be required on all pack
ages, except when mailed in guam
titles of 1000 or more pieces, the
postage then may be paid in money.
The map of zones Of the country
has been received at the local post
Office, but it has not yet been studied,
and no definite information could be
learned as to the boundry of the
zone which Perth Amboy will occupy.
Assistant Postmaster Tyrrell, though
said he thought Perth Amboy would
be in the same zone as New York that
1t would be No. l Zone, but he did
not know where the center of the
division would be located II this
city is in New York's circle one
