PAGE EIGHT POSTOFFIGE KEEPS STEP IN The United States post office department, from the smallest stations to metropolitan offices, will keep step with the war pro. . gram, according to Burt E. Hawkins, Klamath Falls post master, who returned Sunday from Portland where he was named president of the Oregon Postmaster association. Hawkins said much of the convention was given over to hard work and lectures and little social activity was noted. One of the most interesting phases of the convention was the announcement of the use of nhotoeranhed letters. Within a short time all postoffices In the country will have on hand a SDecial letter head and en velope combined to be used be tween men in the service and those on the outside. This short form, fashioned of exceptional ly light paper, will cut down on space and weight and give much needed space for war supplies and food for troops in foreign service. Letters leaving this country by boat or air for points abroad will bs photographed st differ- ent locations. In case the orig inal letter Is lost or destroyed, Hawkins explained, the film will be available and sent a second time to the original point of delivery. ' v Save Space ." ' v "The post office department feels that every available inch: of space must be saved for war supplies and food for men in the- service. But the men must receive their mail, -.too, . and these short form letter heads are the answer to our war prob lem of transportation,'" Haw kin stated. -: Photography of foreign "mail Will start as soon as stationery It printed and available to the Individual correspondent ,' John Hart of Washington," D. C, national president of t h e Postmasters association, was in attendance at the convention. Speakers included Carl Donough of Portland, who spoke on alien registration which has been done this year through the postoffice, and the nation's chief, railway mail clerk who told' of trans portation problems of the postal department. Hawkins served as vice pres ident of the Oregon Postmasters association last year. He has served as Klamath Falls post master since his appointnlent in June, 1935. Mrs. Hawkins ac companied her husband - north.

A United States navy cruiser. No. 12102, a recruiting station on wheels, arrived in Klamath Falls Monday and will remain here until Thursday when it will be dispatched to Lakeview, ac cording to Duncan, By The Associated Press Dry gasoline pumps stranded thousands of motorists along the Atlantic seaboard yesterday as summer's first weekend brought an increase in travel and ex hausting demands on filling sta tions. As harried dealers hung out "no gas" , signs, drivers with empty tanks were forced to leave their cars parked at the roadside or have them towed to parking lots and garages. Philadelphia was hardest hit with all of its 3500 stations closed by mid-afternoon Sunday. Many motorists, including tour ists, were stranded and some war workers were unable to get to their plants. A. Reed Engle, president of the Associated Gasoline Dealers of Philadelphia, said the short age was caused by doubling the value of units on ration cards to six gallons without increasing the supply to stations. "We're (the operators) taking plenty of abuse," he said. The unit value on the .Cards Was doubled by the government in order to take care of a two weeks extension of the ration ing period, originally scheduled to end July 1. The new rationing period will begin July 15. , Courthouse Records MONDAY Marriage Applications CARY-SANDBERG. Paul Ver ril Cary, 26, millhand.
