Of regimental or higher commander
was necessary before packages might

not sufficient.
The question of the shipment of par
cells to France first came to the atten-
ton of the war department when the
commanding general Of the expedition
airy forces cabled that congestion Of
such articles had reached such q point
that French railroads were unable to
handle the load. A board appointed
by the secretary Of war and the post
master general examined 5000 sacks
Of parcel-post mail. and found that the
articles being sent not only, in the
main, were absolutely unnecessary, but
undesirable. The investigation showed
that the amount of such mail had
reached total Of 100000 pounds a
week, and was steadily increasing.
Relatives and friends, according to
q recent statement by the war depart
ment, will find they often can do a
greater service to soldiers by sending
them money for the purchase of ar
ticles. Tobacco Is now being supplied
as part Of the army rations. and mer-
chandise of nearly all kinds may now
be purchased In France through the
huge general store established by the
quartermaster corps at lower prices
