gan an investigation recently of the
whole subject Of bonus legislation for
former service men. The session
was behind closed doors.
The legion representatives were
understood to have pressed arguments
for early action on legislation prOvid-
ing for adjusted compensation on
he grounds that increasing unem-
ployment was aggravating the con-
iition of thousands Of former service
men. Members Of the committee
were said to have assured the legion
spokesman that it was the intention
Of the senate leaders, irrespective Of
party or sectional affiliations, to
pass bonus legislation at this session.

.HAYSLIFTSLID
ONPOSTMASTERS
Urges Them To Particii-
pate In Civic Move
mentS

Much interest centers in the fol
lowing postoffice bulletin just issuel
by Postmaster-G General viii H
Hays, and received by Postmaster
Davenport, urging postmasters to
participate in civic affairs, local
chambers of commerce, boards OF
trades, commercial clubs, etc:
The attention Of all pOstmasters
is directed to the desIrabitity Of pan,
ticipating in civic activities in their
respective communities. By taking
an active interest in the meetings Of
local Chambers OF Commerce, boards
Of trade, commercial clubs, and other
civic and community organizations,
excellent opportunities are afforded
for the dissemination of general
postal information essential TO the
proper conduct Of an efficient posta
service. Postmasters should aTai
themselves Of such opportunities sto
solicit the cooperation OF civic or
CARNATIONS in securing the observ-
ance by the general public of the
fundamental principles of mailing,
the compliance with which on the
part of the postal patrons is neces-
sary to the discharge of postal du
ties to the entire satisfaction of the
public.
"Postmasters should emphasize
The Importance Of
Addressing mail to street and
number;
That firm letterheads should bear
their street address;
THAT mail should be deposited
early and frequently during the day
and not held until the close of BUSH
ness;
THAT return addresses on enve.
lopes result in prompt return of let
tiers if unbelievable;
THAT valuable mail matter should
be registered;
THAT postal money orders should
be used for remittances by mail in.
stead of cash.
''These features and others which
may occur to pOstmasters as being
applicable in their particular com,
munity can be discussed with distinct
advantage to the postal establish.
ment and resulting benefit to its pa
irons. Furthermore, postmasters
should urge constructive criticism
and invite legitimate complaints of
