PROBLEMS ARE MASTERED

Postmaster General Frank H. Hitchcock
is not concealing his thorough satisfaction
with the smooth way in which the new
parcel post system, which was introduced
January 1, is moving under the regula-
tons prepared by his special committee
He regards the preliminary task Of put
ting the new and complicated law into
effect as work exceedingly we'll done.
That amendments and notifications both
in the law and the regulations will be
necessary as experience discloses POSSIBLE
tiles and defects, he does not doubt. But
his keen satisfaction now is due to the
fact that one of the most difficult prob
lens ever faced by the postal service
was faced during his administration, and
that it was faced in manner to COM
mand the respect and the commentator
of the country.
Both on New Year day and yesterday he
was fairly flooded with remembrances
from personal and official friends that
came safely and satisfactorily through the
mails under the new system. In addition
to the beautiful silver vase, appropriately
inscribed. which was sent him by former
Postmaster General Wanamaker, gifts of
all kinds were received. One that par
ticularly interested him was consign-
ment of fresh fruit of all kinds from
Florida. He thought 1t remarkable that
lit should have arrived SO promptly and
with none of it's freshness departed.
One will not have to go to Florida

Freak Packages Received.

Eggs. of course. were sent him, and
his consignment of them came from Long
Island. Books cut flowers, fresh and
beautiful; candy and a variety Of other
articles were found in his collection.
Throughout the country reports have
been received of the receipt of freak
packages but these, the Postmaster Gen.
eral thinks. We're to be expected. The
jokers will soon get their humor ''out of
their system he says. and things will
settle down to sensible, business basis.
The only thing that gives him appre-
hension is the fact that there are many
who seem to have patronized the system
without first informing themselves Of its
requirements. So simple thing as pre-
paying the postage with the distinctive
parcel post stamps seems to have been
overlooked by some, even postmasters,
despite the great care which the depart
ment has taken to impress upon all its
officials the necessity Of strictly conform
ing with the requirements of the law.
Those who have used ordinary postage
stamps. instead of the special parcel post
stamps, for postage on their parcel post
packages will be disappointed in not hav-
ing them reach their destination. Ulti
mately perhaps, they will find their way
back to the senders through the dead
letter office.
