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. >

hospital on Wednesday aTter a
long illness.
