Better Cancellations

Robert E. Fellers. director oi
the newly established Division

lectors that the Post Office
Department in all its branches
is concerned to put a stop to
the vandalistic mutilation OF
stamps on covers passing

The Star on Tuesday that he
will take whatever action may
be necessary to enforce exist
ing regulations protecting
philatelic property. Specifi-
cally, he agreed that every
stamp has potential value to
collectors and that no stamp
should be destroyed unreason-
ably.
"The problem Of excessive
cancellations" Mr.. Fellers
