WASHINGTON, Manager THE SUNDAY MAIL THING OF THE PAST ('ogress Has Taken a Hand In Sunday Delivery of Mall and hat* Ordered it Stopped. Under an act passed on Saturday by Congross, Just before Anal adjourn ment there will be no more Sunday mall. The mall trains will run all right, but the mall will not be distrib uted on Sundays. This applies not on ly to the general delivery window but the mail boxes as well. The daily pa pers may make some sort of arrange ment for'getting their papers to sub scribers on Sunday, but If they do it will have to be outside of and inde pendent of the poStofHce. The follow ing statements explain themselves ami the situation: PostofTice Department. First Assistant Postmaster General, Washington, D. C. August 21. 1912. Postmaster. Sir:?The post office appropriation act for the liseal year ending June HO, 1913, provides: "That hereafter post ofllees of the first and second class shall not be open on Sundays for the purpose of deliver ing mail to the general public, but this provision shall not prevent the prompt delivery of special delivery mail." Under this law you will close the general delivery, carriers' windows, and lock boxes and discontinue all de liveries by carriers on Sunday. You will note, however, that special deliv ery mail is excepted and you will therefore arrange to have on duty a I sufficient force to handle this mail mat ter promptly. The department desires to reduce Sunday work to the minimum, so that as many of the employes as possible may enjoy a complete day of rest on Sunday. You should, therefore, re quire only a sufficient number of clerks to report for duty on that day In order that transit mail and the mall collected for dispatch may be handled without delay. If no mail is dispatch ed on Sunday a very early collection should be made on Monday morning and the mail for local delivery dis tributed before the carriers leave for their first trip. Respectfully.
