Postmaster Braun Gives Some Hints on Mailing Rules There is a ruling of the post office department that parcels of the third and fourth class shall not contain let- ters or personal notes of any kind, yet it is necessary for employes receiving mail to be constantly on the alert to prevent the public from doing this very thing, according to Postmaster Joseph C. Braun. When it is necessary that instruc- tions or a message of some nature ac- company the parcel, provision has been made by the post office depart- ment that the communication, bearing the required first class postage, may be attached to the parcel on which shall be placed the required postage at the third or fourth class rate, as the case may be. That is the reason inquiry is made of senders if parcels contain any un- permissible written matter. Frequently it is discovered by the post office em- ployes that such messages have been enclosed, whereupon the entire parcel is marked up at the first class rate. Recent tests made at a selected post office disclosed that at least 30 percent of the parcels handled as third and fourth class matter contained letters, or personal notes, subjecting them to first-class rates, according to Postmas- ter Braun.
