Washington, July 29-Postmasters
will not be permitted to urge persons

addressed to them which they have
not ordered. Neither will they be
permitted to act os agents of the
senders of such packages in further
attempting to coerce the addresses
to accept delivery or to effect a sale OF
the parcels contents TO other per

action was taken as the result of re
