BY DECEMBER 10
Due to a lack of experienced
costal nersonnel and overbur
dened transportation facilities.
the local postoffice authorities
announced today that all Christ
mas packages and cards must be
mailed by Dec. 10 to insure tneir
delivery by Dec. 23. A nation
wide nrogram Is being carried
out, Impressing upon the public
the lmDortance of mailing ennsv
mas mall early, spreading the
volume over a longer period ot
time rather than waiting and
sending a deluge In last-minute
. mailings.
Transportation facilities are
heavily burdened, and the num
ber of railway cars and airplanes
available for handling Christ
mas mall is far below that of
former years. According to the
postal department, more than
30,000 postal employees have
gone Into the armed forces In
the past year. Many of the tem
porary employees, usually called
In to help out during the Christ
mas rush, have also gone into
the service or Into war work.
Replacement personnel Is largely
inexperienced, unable to handle
In a short time the usual Christ
mas volume of mall.
Christmas gifts should be
marked "Do not open until
Christmas," thus designating
them as Christmas mall, which
must necessarily come secondary
to government communications
Special efforts should be made
also to extend the use of postal
. delivery zone numbers on all
mall addressed to cities having
that system, because the num
bers expedite mail distribution.
The postal establishment tv
day Is delivering record-breaking
volumes of mall. Christmas
mall will be In addition to all
this, therefore the Medford
postal authorities join In the na
tional program of asking public
cqpperatlon In mailing Christ
mas mail before Dee 10, Insur
ing their delivery by Christmas.
