Spyd Program Wins Okay Snails In The Mails Have British Postmen Upset LONDON I Snails in the mails are giving the British post office trouble, an official admit ted Saturday.

Gen. David F. O'Neil said his Marine Air Wing advised its personnel of an order issued last March by Ucn. Kandolpn iwciau Pate, Marine Corps commandant, that families may not "accompany nor later join" Marines assigned to the Far Last. O'Neil said about 250 Marines with an average of two dependents each are involved. "Most will go home on Navy shipping on a space available basis," he said. "This will avoid the financial burden involved." The 1st Marine Air Wing is one of two Marine combat units on duty in Japan. The Marine Corps ban on families also applies to the 3rd Marine Division, but there was no report on how many, if any, dependents of its men were ordered home. Army, Air Force and Navy per sonnel are allowed to bring their dependents to Japan. The govern ment provides transportation, housing and schooling for those of above sergeant's rank who agree to remain abroad three years. The Marines secured their own housing for dependents. O'Neil declined comment on re ports Marine The new charge alleges Remmer and his wife failed to declare joint net income of 457,754 for 1948. NEWPORT, Ore.
