Hereafter in accordance with the pro-
visions of amended Section 500 of the
Postal Regulations making certain alter

this convenience is provided, when per-

amendment is calculated to prove of
great benefit in simplifying the special

At the same time the fact should be
emphasized that the special-del very sys-
