Speaking before a Congressional committee earlier this year, Postmaster General OBrien said, I would fail in my responsibility to you and to the American people if I did not say, frankly, that at present your Post Office Department is in a race with catastrophe. And it is a race that we could well lose, though it is certainly in our power not to lose it. OBrien went on to pinpoint the causes of that race with catastrophe. Fantastic increases in mail volume, rapidly increasing population and urban sprawl requiring more delivery stops, inadequate, badly located and aging physical plants, a need for accelerated reseacrh, machanization and modernization, to mention a few. In the fall of 1966, there was a crisis in Chicago. At one point, 10 million pieces of mail were logjammed. We had mail coming out our ears, the Chicago postmaster said. The Chicago crisis affected mail delivery across the country for weeks. Postmaster General OBrien said that such a crisis could occur at almost any large post office. Each Christmas the postal service is put to its most severe test. More than nine billion pieces of mail are expected to be posted this December. If the greatest percentage of that mail were to hit post offices across the land just before the holiday, there could be chaos, according to knowledgeable postal officials. An energetic program has been developed to make sure such chaos does not occur in this most vital artery of communication this year. Temporary employees are trained to handle the millions of pounds of mail and a greater emphasis will be put on the use of career employees who have the experience to handle such an avalanche of mail.

Lave e Second, through such programs as the recent mailing to householders to supply ZIP code3 and the increased use of the codes by commerce and the public, mail operations will be more efficient. The ZIP code determines the mailing zone for parcels, and therefore the ZIP code on parcels is a must. Third, and of great significance, the postal seivice has asked in the strongest manner that people mail early this year to avoid jam-upThey simply state the truth, The mail that will be delivered on time will be yours.

WE OBJECT! Last week in the .SUNws there was a story that told of a deer hunter on the Kaibab old boy who shooting a was Aiding a horse and al-- o hunting. The first man nrstook the horse for a deer and fire at it, killing the youth. It was ruled an accidental death. This happens with variations almost every year in Utah and no doubt in other sections of the country. Certainly it happened in Arizona this time. As long as we let men get off seo'.t free when they do not take time to find out what they are shooting at and kill a man, they will continue to do it, and hunters will continue to die. If a man cant tell the difference between a deer and a horse he should not be allowed to hunt. If a man shoots into a thicket when he hears a noise and kills another man he should be sent to jail. Such an action is not an accident. As far as we are concerned it is criminal negligence. It should be punished. When a man knows that if he takes another life he will serve a few years in the pen lie will take a second look when he is not sure. Until then, innocent men will continue to be killed. CT.am-beilain- 1 WHAT ABOUT KANAB? Within two days last week the Chamber of Commerce received two letters, one from Califoinia and one from Oiegon. Would you please send me some literature, maps, etc. on your chy cf Kanab, the woman write'-'- . My hus- - Cal-aha- Cali-forn- a and and I are retiring soon and are trying to pick out a place cut of Califoi nia to settle down I in. He has been thei'e and likes it. man from Oregon Would you please send me any' literature you irnglil have on living conditions in your country. We were there two years ago and liked it very much. We should have tabulated them, but haven't. There have been at Fast 20 or 30 lettei's asking about the same thing during the past year. There have been enough so that something specific must be prepared in this field. It will take some time and effort, but it will be well worth it in ihe long run. The writes, OUTSTANDING EVENT Last Friday evening a banquet was held for the Gleaners, and Young Marrieds of the Kanab Stake, honoring those who had lccelved the Master and Golden Gleaner awards. It was an outstanding affair. Those responsible are to be commended. Of the many good things about it, the two best are that it was held and that now it is under way it will become an annual event. It is hoped that next year a number of awards can be presented to the young folks of the area. Two honorary awards were given. The Honorary Golden Gleaner was won by the lady that was more responsible for the affair being held than any other individual. She is Verna Pugh, president of the Stake YWMIA. She has provided the n leadership that has qualified the stake to receive the awards. And those under her who did much of the work arrangixl without her knowledge to have the Honorary Golden Gleaner award presented to her. The man who received the award, Honorary Master Joseph Johnson, has also had a long experience in service to youth. He also holds the BROOK DISTILLERY CO CINCINNATI. OHIO. BLENDED HHiSKEY 66 PROOF, 6E. CRAIN NEUTRAL SPIRITS, to make the affair Kissible, are to be commended. We sincerely hope that this will become a permanent part of the activities of this area. A WORTHWHILE PROJECT While riding to Hollywood with Duff Pugh a few weeks ago he made a suggestion that we fed has a great deal of merit and should be implemented. There is a hill just back of the grass at ihe city park that he suggests be made a rock garden planted with various kinds of cactus. Rocks could be brought in by Kanab residents, as could the cactus. They would take very little care and would certainly beautify that part of the pai'k. If such a plan is approved by city officials, we would volunteer to lead out in the project. We have a rock or two around and know where there ai'e some more. We have also spotted a few cactus that would not be missed if they were transplanted. ESTATE OF BURTON J. MCALLISTER, Deceased.
