Millions of Letters Are Never Delivered Carelessness of letter writers Is costing the government an average of about $5,000 a year. That Is the estimate of B. C. Cowles, superintendent of the post office department's "dead letter" division on the basis of 32 years of experience. This misdirected mail used to cost a great deal more when the dead letter office in Washington handled all of it. A staff of 126 persons was kept busy then doing nothing but tryI ing to discover what careless letter writers had In mind when they directed their letters. The annual expense of the Washington dead letter office has gone as high as $160,000. , In late years nearly all of this work -1ms?been- ^transferred- to 1,082 first class post offices which have been authorized to handle this dead mall. This has cut down the expense at Washington but probably has added as much or more la the aggregate In 'these branch dead letter ofTices scattered over the land. According to the recent annual report of the postmaster general, 12,657,130 misdirected letters were turned over to dead letter offices during the past fiscal year. Many bore no addresses at all. These are called "blanks." A strange fact about such letters Is that one in every ^three of them contains money in some form? checks, money orders or cash. Here is a source of quite a tidy income for the post office department for when it is impossible to discover who the sender or Intended recipient of such money was, it goes into the post office "receipts." The chain letter craze In the spring of 1935 was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to the postal service In unclaimed letters containing money. The sale of stamps to mail these millions of chain letters added hundreds of thousands of dollars more. Another class of letters turned In as "dead" are known as "incompletes," having incomplete addresses. In most Instances they bear merely the name of the person for whom they are meant and no address of any kind. A third cause of misdirected mail piling up at dead letter offices Is mythical towns in the addresses? towns that are not listed In the Postal Guide or that give the wrong state. Letters returned to writers bearing this stamp, "No Sucfi Town In State Named" are common. These are returned, of course, only when the name and address of writers appear, on the envelopes. Othorwlso they remain unclaimed. A fourth common causo of delays in delivery If not.losa of mall is failure to put on postage, stamps. If there Is no way to Identify the writers In such cases this mall goes to dead letter ofTices or may be' posted In local postofflces In which It is mailed In the hope that senders will see it and supply postage necessary. > William Sydnor Gllbreath, 69, who blazed the trail for the Dixie highway twenjy-flve years ago, died in a Detroit hospital on Wednesday aTter a long illness. % ' - i, t, , ?r . ?
