PURPL REEPLAGES RED THREE-CEXT STAMPS MAKE FIRST APPEARANCE OJf LETTERS. Less Than 10 Pep Cent of First. Mail Collections After Increase Are l" Shr of Postage. Is Estimate. - The Fortland postoffice and sub-stations were raided yesterday for 3-cent Stamps, when the new postal regula tion requiring Increased letter postage .went Into effect. -- There isn't much difference between the 2-cent stamp, which carried letters heretofore, and the 3-cent one which is to carry them during war-times just " cent and a little matter of coloring. "The 3-cent stamp, like its displaced -brother, bears the head of Washington, but is purple in color. - Many business houses purchased large supplies of the 3-cent stamps, which up to the present have been one of the "poorest sellers" in the postal depart ment. Others bought heavily of 1-cent stamps, in order to use them in con junction with supplies of 2-cent stamps already on . hand, and to enhance the ' value of the penny postcard, which now "requires 2 cents to travel. The public bought indiscriminately. of threes, and twos and ones, many ap pearing to prefer the combination of the two lesser stamps to the single 3- cent denomination. Little comment and no complaint was made at the stamp windows, and the great majority of stamp purchasers appeared to be fully advised regarding the increased post age. As was expected by- postoffice of ficials, the first few mail collections carried a number of letters and post cards with insufficient postage. Yet the percentage was not large, and is estimated to have been less than 10 per cent. Letters and other first-class mail, un der the increased postage regulation, which are insufficiently stamped will be returned to the sender. In the event that the return address is not given, the matter will be forwarded to the addressee and postage due will be collected upon delivery. For more than a third of a century the United States has not bad 3-cent letter postage. For many years prior to 1S83 3-cent postage was in effect, but in that year it was discontinued and the 2-cent letter rate adopted, from which there has been no depar ture until yesterday.
