Ject to guards shooting promiscuously

piciousiy approached a mail car" the

II lave information that the same
marine who shot the youth at De
Pere. VIII later proved to he a lad
stealing a ride had. been plugging
away with his rife at several points
along the route. 1t is this condition
that J called the departments atten-
ton to. not the nail guard service as

@ Protection Necessary.
Postmaster General Hays sayS in
his letter to the governor hat the
matter Of protecting mails lis of
transcendent Importance and presents
nan difficulties"
The request for marines to help in
the guarding of the mails was only
made he says AFTER many other
efforts had been made and when he
a rather a definite reason to expect
serious further depredations.
'The mails must be inviolate and
the department will go to any lengths
to keep them so. The public has tho
right to expect the fullest discharge
of the departments duty in this re-
gard and instructions have been re-
issued that the armed postal employees
shall do whatever is necessary to pro.
tect the mails.
THE extraordinary measure of us.
ing the marines is only justified by the
necessities. and just as certainly tho
prophecies and necessities require
that the guards shall go no further
in the use of their fire arms Than i:
reasonably necessary considering the
Importance of their objective"
