The

of

Christmas parcels during the des

sized too strongly, Veatch stated,
the earlier the better. The public
can be reasonably assured that
parcels mailed through the regu

tions before Christmas. However,
no assurtt^ce can be given that
surface parcels mailed after No

mailed after December 1, will be
delivered in time for Christmas.
Senders are cautioned not to de
lay the mailing of parcels until
December on the assumption that
timely delivery will be assured
through the use of air mail ser
vice. In addition to the large vol
ume of Christmas mail, it is neces
sary that medical and military
supplies be given the highest pri
ority on the overseas airlift.
Parcels destined for Japan Ko

ic should be mailed as early as
possible, preferably not later than
November 1. Parcels for the Navy
