"We are not only confronted with the gigantic task oi handling the mails, both personal and official, for the members of our armed forces and for business enterprises engaged in the production of war ma terials, ships, tanks, planes, and guns, but for the general public and the usual amount of mails as well," Postmaster Walton said. He calls attention to the fact that thousands of experienced postal employees are in the militaiy or naval forces and more will be called and replacements will be hard to get and must be trained when they aie secured. Trucks and other essential equipment is difficult if not impossible to ootaln. Train service is Irregular and railroad storage cars, in which the parcel post mail is usually translated, are now largely diverted to war needs. These conditions will be aggiavated by added traffic duiing the Christmas season. With these conditions as pointed out above, Postmaster Walton states that it is important, commencing at once, for postal patrons to start do ing their Christmas shopping and mailing if their parcels are to reach their destination in time for Christmas. It is vitally necessary that the public shop ear;y, wrap securely, address mail completely, and mail early. d Your cooperation in this matter will be appreciated. whole-hearte- SOIL CONSERVATION TOUR MADE 14.
