DEAD LETTERS ARE BIG WASTE ’This Can Be Avoided, Postal Chiel Says -~ Washington June 1 (AP) — Postmaster General New has deters mined to atlgupt to eurb careless correspondents and prod parcel post users who are responsible for a drag on the postal service which causes an enormous cconomic and constde erable financial loss cach year, With a view to redncing dead let- ters and parcels, now going to tho dead letter office at the rate of 21, 000,000 tetters and §03,000 parcels a r, the postmaster general has esignated the week of June 1 to 7 as, "Better Mailing Week,” during which a nation-wide campaign will be conducted to educate everyone to use more care in the addressing of mall If everyone who mailed a letter or parcel put a return address on the nvelope (and the proper place is the upper left-hand corner, not the back),” says the postmaster general, “the dead letter office could bs closed and a vast amount of mopey time and energy saved. More than 99 per cent of dead letters contain no clue to the sender on the envel- ope Mistakes are bound to occur, but investigation of claims’ and ‘com- plaints divulges that in the vast ma« Jority of cases it is the maller rather than the postal clerk who maken the error. We are going to try. to do better. We are striving for that goal of perfection, and we would like for you to co-operate with us and help reducing that appalling dead letter revenue, It can be done by: “Addressing letters plainly. leave« ing out nothing that will help'the carrier make delivery; “Putting return address in upper left-hand corner; “Using strong cord and stout | paper.” Of the 21,803,000 pleces of mail which went to the dead letter office last year, 100,000 letters were in |perfectly blank envelopes.

The revenue of the dead letter office is sufficient to keep that in- stitution functioning but it is mot nearly enough to pay-the annual hiil for support of the “Nixle,” as postal employes call a letter or parcel so Improperly addressed that it cannot be delivered to the addressee nor ree turned to the sender without special treatment. This special treatment, called direclry service, costs the taxpayer $1,740,000 a year. 'In New York city alone it costs $500 a day to look up addresses. Approxi- mately 200,000,000 piéces of mail yearly are given directory service, The simple addition of a return ad- dress would obviate it entirely post office officials say.
