PUBLIC IS URGED
TO EXERCISE CARE
IN YULE MAILING
Much Mail Is Still Lost
Every Year Through Poor
Wrapping, Faulty Addess
ing, Postmaster Counsels
With the arrival of December,
Postmaster Frank DeSouza today
Issued his annual Christmas mes
sage: "Mall early and carefully."
All Christmas mall should be sent
In time to avoid a last-minute rush,
all correspondence should be direct
ed to a specific address Including
street and number or rural route and
box number and all parcels should
be wrapnd securely In durable con
tain ere, the postmaster counseled.
There are several kinds of special
mailing services designed to expedite
handling and dolt very and these
should be utilized whenever greater
speed la desired, Mr. DcSouz said.
Pos toff Ice clerks will give full In
formation on the special services,
he added.
Public Still Remiss
Despite the repeated advice of
postal authorities yeai after year,
many senders of Christmas packages
still do not wrap their gifts securely
In durable containers, Mr. DeSouza
emphasized. Scarcely a year goes by
without the arrival at postofflcca of
flimsy parcels that have been turn
In transit, the addresses lost, he as
serted. To avoid loss of parcels, he
urged everyone to wrap Christmas
gifts with extreme care.
. Every year, the postmaster con
tinued, there is a substantial loss of
Christmas greetings mailed In un
sealed envelopes because of the re
moval of addressees or other causes.
Greetings sent In unsealed envelopes
at third clsxa postage rate are not
entitled to the free forwarding priv
ilege, Mr. DeSouza pointed out. If
the address Is not correct, therefore, ;
the addressee never receives the I
greeting, ha emphasised. Such unde
Uverable mall Is destroyed, he ex
plained.
Aflrireas Needed
Christmas correspondence not bear
ing a specific address must be held
for delivery after the holidays as the
postofflce staff has no time to look
up addresses around Christmas time,
the postmaster said.
"We do the best we can to deliver
mall under all circumstances but If
the parcel is broken and the address
lost or If tho address Is not com
plete there is nothing that we can
do," the postmaster said. "We are
therefore asking the cooperation of
the public. If the public does Its
pnrt, we will do ours."
exposition will be attended by many

noted, will celebrate the 100th anni
versary of the Inauguration of the

tne club waa equipped with "lounges,
ballroom, bar, restaurant and num
erous other adjuncts more conducive
to what la known to aviators aa
'hangar flying' then to the pursuits
of aeronautics aa a science."

OAKLAND, Calif., Dec. 1 7P The
first mate of a coastal lumber achoon
er told today how he mistook the
transport plane which was forced
down off Point Reyes Tuesday, taking
the lives of five persons, for a rescue
plane.
The mate, E. H. Buckner of Marsh'
field. Ore., said he was standing watch
on the bridge of the schooner Lum-
bertown about dawn when the plane
paned over, almost grazing the mast
of the ship.
'I first saw the plane at 8:16
a. m.. Buckner said here today, while
his vessel was discharging cargo.
Plqne Swooped Close
'It roared out of a murky sky
and came right over us so close that
I thought It would crash Into our
mast. Then it dropped a white
flare.
Five minutes later It came back
over us, circling, and I saw the runn
ing and cabin lights extinguished. I
thought It would land at Drake's
bay (an inlet near where the plane
went down)."
"I had heard a navy radio broad
cast Just a few minutes before, but
my undertsanding waa that a plane
In trouble was already down. So I
thought the plane we saw was a
searching plane which waa in no
trouble Itself.
"This belief was strengthened by
the fact that a plane in distress vou Id
drop a red flare and would vagglc
Its wings. The plane I saw dropped a
white flare and gave no other signal
Believed Landing
"When I saw lights on the plane
go out I figured It was making a
safe landing at Drake's bay, and
then I saw coast guard flares on
shore and figured the .coast guard
had the situation In hand."
Buckner's story tallied with entries
In the log of radio messages between ;
tho Ill-fated plane and the Oakland I
airport.
At 5:18 a. m Just four minutes
before the last mr.age was received I
from the plane. Captain Charles
Stead, Its pilot, told the airport he
was "north or south of Point Reyes,
ready to land. There are two lights.
One looks like a ship and we are
still over the water."
The airport replied at 5:20, MWe
are trying to contact the boat you
saw and have them follow you.
Appeal I'nheard
But Buckner said the Lumbertown'e
radio operator. R. w. Cox of Marsh
field, waa tuned In to the coast
guard station trying to learn more
about the plane's difficulty, and did
n't hear the airport's frantic appeal
Capt. James Allen of Alameda,
akipper of the ship, waa not on duty
at that hour. Buckner aald.
The ship, owned by the Coos Bay
Lumber company, was en route lrom
Oregon to Oakland at the time.
