Recent In crease l.n the flood of question able matter offered for transmis sion through the'niatH has led to further tightening of the routine safeguards employed In the postal service for keeping It out and for prosecution, of those violating the federal statutes in that regard. Thousands of complaints have come to - the office , bf the post master general from parents and associations asking that the de partment augment its efforts to protect children ' from "obscen literature and pictures. ; ' ' ; The close surveillaace exercised over the character of matter pass ing through the mails, officials "believe, has affected a material decrease In the number of dealers in pornographic matter. " Federal courts have : discouraged - the ef forts of snchr dealers by: upholding .the post office department in each instance where ,rulings excluding obscene matter from the mails has been .challenged;i".;s,. . -y Foreign dialers, especially since the war and, the return of Ameri can soldiers from Europe, have been active in endeavoring to dis pose of their products : in this country. - , In. many " instances foreign consignments "are inter cepted at custom houses. The trade of these offenders has been crippled by the postal authorities returning to' senders letters ad dressed to all known dealers in obscene matter, by confiscating great quantities of unmailable ad vertising circulars and the mate rials as well, and by acquainting those attempting to import such rjjratter with their riesponsibnity and. liability to. prosecution under the penal provisions of the laws. The numerous small magazines, depending for their popularity on, the pornographic material in them are the source of continual com plaint and the exclusion of many of them from the mails curtails tot a considerable extent ( their widespread ; circulation. . These publications have been responsible for increasing the work of th post office department's legal forces. The magazines when excluded from the mail find their, way. to newstands through .other channels. , DEAR BUILDER: . . . Glad to learn that, you've decided to build this year.
