BRITAIN TO FINISH
 FORWARDING MAIL E HELD UP THRU WAR

LONDON, Aug. 20.-The forward ing of mail detained during the war by the postal censor will be completed August 30, the war office announces. The mail was held because it's trans mission would have assisted the Ger man military and naval plans, includ- ing the commercial and financial re- sources of the enemy, and aided the far-reaching German political and commercial propaganda campaign.
 The handing over of this delayed matter began June 23. It is estimated that 630,000,0 pieces of mail were examined during the war and that 1 1900, 900 were detained, of which 592,- 900 have been released, recently.
 Approximately r150,300 pieces of mail seized originated in the United States or were going to the United States when they reached the censor's hands. Of the remaining matter, that originating in or destined for the United Kingdom will be destroyed ex- cept letters or packages containing articles of value of documents of inn portance.
 In regard to mails routed over the United Kingdom, to and from foreign countries, and mails landed from neu- tral ships which entered British terri torial waters, it has been decided that pieces containing goods, currency, se- curities and other valuable financial papers will be put into prize courts. Commercial and private correspond ence containing valuable documents will be released. Other private cor respondence will be destroyed because of the great cost of re-examination.

This claim is based on the allegation that the mules and other items of grading equipment which were turned over by the company were anything but as represented.

This money is said to have been turned over to A. A. (Tony) Johns, secretary-treas- urer of the company, just few days before the change in administration
