EASILY HANDLED
Report Shows One-hfth
Greater Bulk Than
In 1918.

Washington's Christmas mail ex.
ceeded last years by y per cent
officials of the Postoffice Department
announced last night.
Despite the increased demands on
the powers of the Washington mail
system. an augmented force of clerks
cleared up the mail almost as rapidly
as it was received.
In other cities the increase in the
volume of mail was more than 100
per cent greater than that of 1918. 1t
was estimated that the entire volume
was greater than last years by 30
per cent.
Reports to the Postofice Department
from most large cities stated the
Christmas mail had been disposed of,
and that mails again were normal.
Lack Of congestion in the Christmas
rush was noted throughout the coun-
try.
