D. parcels, which will go into effe ct October 1, 1930, may have the effect of reducing buying away from home which works such a hardship on local merchants, especially during this period of business depression when every penny spent at home counts big. The sum and substance of the new ruling is that there will be a demurrage charge on all collect-on-delivery packages left in the postoffice longer than 15 days after the addressee has been notified of its arrival. Either the sender will have to pay return postage on these parcels at the end of 15 days "Storage" or the receiver will have to pay a penalty of five · cents for each day that it is left in the postoffice after the allowed 15day period. In such a case there is a strong probability that people will not order C. 0. D. packages quite so readily and the merchants in other cities, including mail-order houses, will not be so a~ous to send these packages subject to the whim of the person who ordered them and may just as likely , refuse to accept them when they arrive, for qiute often the price sounds much bigger than tliat quoted originally, especially with the postage and C. 0 . D. fee added on. The two leading mail-order houses have just shipped in some ten sacks of catalogues to the Midvale postoffice and each sack contains aprpoximately 25 catalogues. This makes a total of 250 catalogues sent here. not to mention the number which has been received in single packages. Following is the exact copy of the order issued by the postmaster general regarding the payment of demurrage on C. 0. D. parcels after they have laid in the postoffice for 15 days: "Under such regulations as the postmaster general may prescribe any collect-on - d~livery parcel which the address fails to remove from the postoffice W1thin fifteen days from the first attempt to deliver or the first notice of arrival at the office of address may be returned to the sender, charged with the return postage, whether or not such parcel bears any s'pecified time limit for delivery; and a demurrage charge of not exceeding five cents per day may be collected when delivery has not been made to either the addressee or the sender until after the expiration qf the prescribed period. (Act of May 23, 1930.) "A demurrage charge of five cents per day shall be collected on each domestic C. 0. D. article (registered or unregistered) which the address fails to remove from the postoffice within fifteen days after the first attempt to deliver or the first notice of arrival at the office of address, exclusive of the day delivery is first attempted or the first notice of arrival is issued at the office of address, the actual day of delivery, Sundays, and holidays. "The demurrage charges which have properly accumulated on a domestic collect-on-delivery article at each postoffice where held must be paid before delivery by either the addressee or the sender. When a C. 0. D. article on which demurrage has accrued is not accepted by the addressee, the amount of demurrage charges shall be paid by the sender upon return of the C. 0. D. article to him. Postage-due stamps representing the amount of demurrage charges shall be affixed to each article and canceled at the time of delivery." Penney Company Declares Common Stock Dividend The board of directors of the J. C. Penney company, at a meeting held September 2, declared' out of surplus a quarterly dividend for the quarter ending September 30, 1930, of 75 cents per share on the outstanding common stock of the company, pay. able September 30 to common stockholders of record at the close of business September 20. At the same time they declared out of surplus, a quarterly dividend for the quarter ending September 30, of $1.50 per share on preferred stockholders of record at the outstanding preferred stock of the company, payable September 30 to preferred stockholders of record at the close of business September 20.
