the embargo went on. Yesterday
90 cars were loaded.
Some Delivery Questionable.
Postal authorities were not OPP
timistic about the delivery here by
Christmas of any parcels mailed
in California before the embargo.
They believed. however, that
packages still might be mailed in
time to such points as Boston if
the embargo is lifted by next
Tuesday.
Eight hundred temporary postal
workers, hired for the Christmas
rush, were to report to District
post offices for the first time this
afternoon. But Postmaster North
said the embargo probably would
cut their work hours from an ex-
pected eight to about two.
Yesterday 4,510 sacks of parcel
post was received here. compared
with 1876 sacks the same date last

First-Cl Flow Normal.
Nair G. Maxson, chief of the
Postal Transportation Service,
said shortly before noon that the
flow of outgoing first-class mail
was normal.
There was every indication the
city also will be able to keep cur
rent" on airmail service, despite
heavy demands on it, Mr.. Maxson
said. He believed enough addi-
tional equipment would be avail
able to keep the mail flying.
The delay IN passenger sched-
ules was caused primarily by the
mail tieup. 1t was necessary to
unload Washington mail from
trains in Union Station, then hold
the train while mail cars were
being put on the train for other
points.
To catch up with f1rst-class mail
shipments, the Washington Post
Office last night loaded three Cap
ital Airlines planes with 100
pouches, containing 8,733 pounds
OF mail. They were bound for
Chicago and other Western points.
List in Preparation.
The Post Office was preparing a
list of towns in Virginia and
Maryland to which all types of
mail will be trucked in connection !
with regular rural service.
Assistant Postmaster w. Cor
don Bell said many points some

such as Southern Maryland towns,
still would receive normal service
to and from Washington.
The emergency mail arrange
ment came after a siX-hour meet

New Sheriff Serves
Warning on VioIators
In Prince Georges

Republican Carlton G. Beall
took over as sheriff of Prince
Georges County today and ilnme-
diately served a warning on all
gamblers. strip teasers and other
law violators.
Sheriff Beall, first Republican to
hold that Office in Is years, sue
ceeded T. Ward Martin. Democrat
He was elected in the November
7 balloting which saw Republicans
take virtual control of the county
from the Democratic machine.
Sheriff Beall also declared his
office. the police department and
the States attorneys Office would
work as a "interlocking organiza-
ton"
In the past, this office has been
used more or less as a process
office in passing the issue of law
enforcement from one person to
another. and nothing much was
ever accomplished" the sheriff as
serted in prepared statement.
This Office will take the num-
bers writer's off the streets, also
see that delivery trucks do not
pick up numbers for hackers with
headquarters elsewhere. Also, all
places selling alcoholic beverages
will have to sell them according
to the laws of this county. The
pinball machine operators shall
stop using them for gambling de-
vices. The immoral, so-called
floor shows in night clubs and
restaurants will be discontinued. "

service was permitted between
cities of a single area.
One such region includes Maine
New Hampshire, Vermont, Massa-
chusetts, Rhode Island, Connect
cut, New York, New Jersey, Penn
sylvania, Delaware, Maryland
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illi-
noiS.
While mail of any type may be
accepted for delivery in and be-
tween those States, only non-re-
stricted mail may be sent there
from other parts of the country.
Post Offices located south of the
Ohio and Potomac Rivers will not
send restricted mail to the Dis
trict, Maryland, Delaware, Penn
sylvania. New Jersey. New York,
Connecticut, Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island, New Hampshire. Vermont.
Maine or Chicago.
The embargo makes it impos-
sible to send non-restricted mail
between Maryland and Virginia.
However, Washingtonians may
use postoffices at nearby Virginia
and Maryland points to get
around that rule.
Restricted parcels might be sent,
for instance, from Silver Spring
to States east of the Mississippi
and north of the Potomac and
Ohio Rivers. and from Alexandria
to Southern points. Extension OF
the embargo to these points, how
ever, would prevent their use by
District residents.

1t would be necessary to use
airmail to send embargoed mat
ter west of the Mississippi.
