CHANGE In SYSTEM
OF ROUTING THE MAIL
Plan Adopted BY Postmaster General
Burleson Is Said to Facilitate
Delivery.

The safe and expeditions handling
through the mail transportation service
with the inadequate equipment, of the
immense amount of mail matter due to
the parcel post, was the big problem
that faced the administration OF Post
master General Burleson, but this is
being gradually solved by the estao-
lishment of ons or more terminal rail-
way postoffices in each State, usually
at cities having the most railway con-
nections.
Instead of sacking together all kinds
of mail matter gathered in transit for
distant points, as well as routing it. by
postal clerks in mail cars jammed with
mail matter, it is now put OFF at the
nearest terminal railway postoffice
where it is routed, separately sacked
and sent forward in baggage cars,
where possible, instead of in mail cars
to the various State terminal offices for
local dispatch. This plan gives more
working room in mail cars for handling
frst-class matter and matter for local
distribution.
Forty-four terminal railway postof-
fees are now in operation and the re-
naming eighty-two will soon be in op-
Grafton. Next year il is planned to
have a total of 80 of these offices
Those that have been established are
working below their capacity due to
inprovised equipment, but weekly r.-
ports show that a big increase in the
daily average of parcels handled. Think
Of a train of twenty large baggage
cars leaving New York City daily load
ed to the roofs with 14.000 sacks OF par
cells originating in New York City and
passing through there between points
in New England and the South and
West, and an idea can be gained of the
volume of mail matter being handled
throughout the country which has made
necessary the usEL slshment of these
various terminal offices.

enlarged If you consult your cook book.
