SPARK PLUGS in
|. P..O. SCRAMBLED

Just as horrible example" of the
necessity for wrapping parcel post
packages securely, the postoffice has
in its possession today gross OF
spark plugs, all consigned to three
different firms on Maui.
They were shipped from a Middle
West city, insured, but were so care
lessly wrapped that the three sepa-
rate boxes came apart en- route and
spilled their contents. When the bag
was opened here a shower Of 144
loose spark plugs came out, all
scrambled together, the plugs undam-
aged, however, as the individual box
Ees containing each plug were not
crushed.
Because the Maui consignees do not
know what percentage of the number
they ordered was sent by the manu-.
facturer, it is now necessary for the
postoffice to write the mainland ship
per to determine just how many are
intended for each firm. The factory
is behind with its orders and the mum.
Der shipped does not equal the total
ordered.
