For "Better Mailing" r.: - c With 20,000,000 letters going annuully to the dead let ter office and with 200,000,000 yearly requiring "directory inewice," tho postmaster general's appeal for cooperation j j: chambers of commerce,' boards of trade, large business a'nd industrial concerns and the press in an intensive cam i J)uign for "better mailing," being staged now by the i postal service,, should meet with ' general response. Wos; L' Si? the mail that pours into the dead letter office so mis jjarries because of deficient address and direction. Many of those letters inclose money, more of them carry impor jiint information or call for rej)ly. The actual injury sus tained as a result of careless addressing that prevents de liveiy to persons intended is incalculable. fhe campaign also is directed to rousing the public to idealization of tho cost of carelessness which, though it falls .short of preventing delivery, makes it difficult. The jjqptoffices are now called on to , render much "directory 6fir?ice" as a result of careless 'addressing. While letter.? may finally be delivered, deficient addressing casts a heavy Lurden on the postal service. , The. time and. effort con sumed in perfecting addresses are paid for out of public Jfunds. J It is in the interest of the sehdei-s, the sendees, th postal service and the puUie sfcneiiUiju the pislui'iuitcU general's appeal for "better mailing" runs.
