SENDING TONS IF MONEY ACROSS
 THE SEAS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. - Womer Tn mourning garb and men with solemn faces, waiting in line these days all over the United States before postoffice windows where foreign money orders are issued, tell word less story of the sorrows of wars de struction reaching across the seas to America.
 A third Christmas time of world conflict has seen long lines of happy folk, radiant with holiday spirit at the prospect of sending something
 home to the old folks" turned into 4filent parties of mourners, sending back money to alleviate suffering and filled with anxiety and distress with the uncertainty of it's safe arrival. There is also the grave uncertainty that even a gift reaches it's destina- tion no one will be there to receive 1t.
 Postal clerks have been quick to note the change. Veterans in the service who have been issuing Christ mas money orders to all parts of the globe for years say they no longer hear eagerly told stories of the gifts the money was to buy. They hear only hopes that it may arrive safely to provide food, clothing and fire, or perhaps medicine.
 
 The line is a little shorter and the people average much older this year than formerly. It's decreased numbers is attributed to the fact that the gov, ernment, despite determined efforts. is unable to guarantee safe and speedy delivery of money orders in the war zone. Old age has taken it's place in line because the sons of many are now across the seas on the fighting fronts.
 Through the postal money order de partment the United States will be Santa Claus to far more people of the Entente Allies than of the Central Powers this year. Delivery of orders in England and France have been in terfered with only slightly. No deliv- cry is being made in Austria, and German points receive their orders late, if indeed, they get them at all. Virtually no orders are being sent to Russia, largely because Warsaw, which was the central station for the payment of orders, now is in the war zone. This situation has affected the money order receipts in this country greatly. too, for in former years Rus sians in the United States led all the remaining foreign born citizens in sending money home at Christmas time
 Prisoners of war will receive many money orders this Christmas. This is particularly true in England, where delivery is good. By an agreement made several years ago in a conven- tion of various countries to effect postal agreement, it was arranged that orders to prisoners of war should be transmitted free of charge. and the United States is living up to the agree ment scrupulOusly.
