once Of the Third Asst Postmast-
er General. Washington. Nov. q
/. A postmaster who succeeds in
indusing an owner Of war savings
certificates to keep them rather than
obtain payment performs valuable
service.
2. This subject is Of particular
importance at this time because Of
the tendency of some owners to ask
payment on the ground that the war
is over. Postmasters should cour-
teously bring to the attention Of
such applicants the fact that though
fighting has ceased the great ex-
penses of the war will continue for
r.any months. and possibly several
years. and that In any event the
plan to defray these expenses re-
quires that the government should
have the use Of the proceeds Of the
issue Of war savings stamps until
their maturity. Every payment of
war savings certificates before ma
turity interferes to that extent with
the program to finance the war.
8. Some Of he postmasters at
large Offices have addressed letters
to every applicant for payment of
war savings stamps with excellent
effect. In one case seventy.five per
cent Of the persons receiving such q
letter have not rturned to claim pay
ment. When letters are received
demanding payment Of war saving,
stamps. postmasters are advised to
reply In accordance with section "a.
CORN S34s, and, In proper cases
along the lines indicated in the pre-
csding paragraph.
r. Payment in accordance with
the regulations should not be re-
fused after ten days written notice
when the owner insists and such
payments should be treated a. con-
fidential In the same manner as 9TH
er postal transactions.
