Show WOULD HAVE P. 0.4 OPEN AFTER SIX LIONS SEEK WAY TO KEEP POST OFFICE OPEN IN ; EVENING Determined effort will be made by individual members of the Lions club to secure the opening of the Milford postoffice during evening hours. It was thought however, that action in regard to this should originate from individual business men, taking form in the manner of a petition to the postal inspector, rather than by the Lions acting as an organization. The matter was thoroughly discussed at the weekly luncheon which was held Wednesday at the Milford Hotel dining din-ing room. Various members took the floor and expressed themselves as opposed to the closing of the postoffice at 6:00 P. M., but all believed that it could be remedied by assuring the postoffice of protection against vandalism. Al Cline advocated that drastic measures be taken against parties who tamper with government property, and brought to the' attention of the club that the town has three police officers" who should be: able to take care of the situation. . . . Karl S. Carlton mentioned the fact, that there was a move on foot to establish a postoffice in- South Milford, Mil-ford, together with a store, which was' caused primarily by the town postoffice postof-fice locking up. .'' -.' :The chair, appointed Leslie Clay as' a committee to make investigations, to bring the matter up before the town board, and to make recommendations recommend-ations to the Lions club. It was the belief of D, E. Kirk that the postal department here would be ready to co-operate . when measures for protection pro-tection were guaranteed, and that was the sentiment also of Milton Pool. |
