The mall between Portland and Seattle has become so large that the clerks are not only handicapped by the quantity to be handlad. but also by the limited space In which they have to work In the cars. Because of this about 130,000 let ters from Seattle are delayed In the de livery In Portland each month. There are only two. railway clerks to handle the enormous mass of mall com ma from the sound, and they - are swamped. contlnuaUyJLOnlx about one half the time are they able to have the mall "worked" ready for delivery by the time the train reaches Portland. When a blocked occurs the work la thrown upon the - clerk in the poat offlce. ' These men have all the work they can handle without the extra burden.- Those who have watched the work of the mall service eay that at least four clerks should be put on the trains between Portland and Soatll and that more cars should be provided tor the mall.
