POSTMASTER GIVES SOME INSTRUCTIONS

Predictions that there would be a big sale of two-cent stamps imme- diately after the first of July have been realized at the Norwich post of fee. where Postmaster John F. Mur- pry said on Wednesday that there had been such a demand for stamps of that denomination that the receipts had been almost as much as if the regular rate for letters was cents as it had been under the war prices. It is evident that many business houses held back their mail in the last penny by mailing after the first of July.
 In view of some misunderstandinss on the part of the public as to some he wanted to call attention to these and give instruction that would set the public right.
 There is a mistaken idea that a pen delivery but such is not the case. Many letters mailed in Norwich for delivery in Norwich have recently come to the post office with only penny stamp on them. All such must have two-cent stamps.
 During this month the three-cent stamped envelopes and the two-cent postal cards will be redeemed at their full value. but after July they will be redeemed at only their own value
 The local post office is being both cred a great deal by having packages put into the package boxes on the street. The carriers are instructed not ta take from the boxes any packages that weighs over 4 ounces. Anything heavier than that should be brought to the post ofice. In some cases pack ages weighing 8 to 10 pounds have been found in the package boxes. These often lie for whole day in the box for they are not taken until they are reported in by the carrier and are collected when the parcel post team

 James Moody Jr.. of Hartford ten dered his resignation as chairman of the committee. saying that private business affairs made his resignation imperative.
 The resignation was accepted. and Alfred N. Phillips. Jr.. of Stamford was elected chairman to succeed Mir MOODY, MT. Phillips first resigning as committee secretary. Judge James tary to succeed Dr. Phillips.
 MT Moody said he would be glad to continue as member of the executive committee, When announcing his res- ignation Mir. Moody said that in his opinion it was essential that the Connecticut executive committee raise $3,000 to defray its expenses for the period antedating the national con yention at Minneapolis in November ham of New Haven it was voted that the officers of the state committee be empowered to make arrangements toward borrowing this sum.
 Professor Bfnghm said he thought it important that the committee have paid field secretary who would give all his time to legion affairs. It was voted that the chairman, secretary and treasurer of the committee, act as a sub committee to secure a field secre- tary, who must be a member of the American legion. and to agree with him as to his salary.

goes by that box some time later. In some cases where such heavy boxes have been reported the firms sending them have been notified but the prac- or indifferent mail messenger from the firms office wants to get rid Of the package as soon as possible instead of coming all the way to the post of fee with it. Broken packages of parcel post mat ter are every once in a while revealing that the senders cannot resist the temptation. either through iEnorapce inside a parcel post package, and when such a letter is detected, regular first class mail rates must be charged for the whole package. This often results dollars where it would only be few cents at the parcel post rate.
 Not long ago a pail of sauerkraut broke open in the post office, revealing of the sauerkraut ss or s4 instead of the insignificant sum charged at par eel post rates. A woman out in the country had package of old clothes sent to her the other day. The bundle broke open and out popped a letter. Result, $3 postal charge.
 Letters can be sent accompany a parcel post package but they must be attached on the outside :. In that case the letter goes at regular letter rates, the package parcel post rates, and everybody is happy. =
 Although the postmaster made a re- quest short time ago for early mail ing in the afternoon, stating that it would make a difference of probably 12 hours in the delivery of letters for New York points and the west, many business houses are not yet taking up the suggestion. The postmaster re- peats it by eaying that all possible mail should be brought to the post office by or 5 o'clock instead of waiting till or z in the evening.
