Greater Care Is Urged In Addressing Of Mail Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfteld today urged postal patrons to take greater care In ad dressing mall to help the Post Of fice Department cope with grow ing mail volume and related prob lems of "look alike" addresses. Mail volume has been Increasing steadily, because of growing pop ulation and greater per capita use of the malls, Mr. Summerfleld pointed out. In the past fiscal year ended last June 30, the mail vol ume was approximately SS billion pieces, and in 10 years it Is expect ed to be between 70 and 7S billion pieces. "Naturally, with greater volume, there ar? a growing number of mis takes In the addressing of mail," Mr. Summerfleld noted. "Postal patrons can help us maintain the rapid service they have grown to expect in recent years by taking care to address their letter or package correctly. "To give an idea of what we are up against." Mr. Summerfleld con tinued, "we have now over the na tion 24 Arlingtons, 24 Greenvilles, 27 Franklins, 26 Chesters, 24 Man chester. 24 Marions. 27 Madisons and 26 Washingtons. "Perhaps the best known dupli cate of names Is that of Hollywood, California (a station of the Los Angeles Post Office) and Holly wood, Florida. But It should he not ed that we have 12 other Holly woods too. "Besides these duplications," Mr. Sumraerfield'added, "there are doz ens of other offices and stations bearing identical names. This, of course, makes it imperative that the name of the state be legibly written. "Also, not only do we have a lot of post offices and postal sta tions with exactly the same name, but there are scores of Instances where they bear somewhat similar names. When two post offices in the same state have similar names, it becomes a problem if the ad dress is illegible or poorly written. Just as one example among many, there are Norwalk and Norfolk. Connecticut. "And all oi this," Mr. Summer field explained further, "is compli cated by the fact that many of our state abbreviations look alike when written poorly or typed incorrectly. For example, a letter meant far Arlington, Ga.. may easily go to Arlington, Va. when the writing is poor. "Outstanding on the list of state name abbreviations which look much alike are those of Mass., Miss., Minn, and Mich. Then there are N. Dakota and S. Dakota, N. Carolina and S. Carolina, Me., and Mo., and Va. and Vt. "These examples show graphical ly why great care should be exer cised in writing names and ad dressees legibly and completely," Mr. Summerfleld continued. "Many persons who are careful in most things are careless about their mail,'.' he added. "Letters and packages are deposited with ad dresses which are no more than a hasty scrawl, often carelessly and incorrectly written and without any semblance of return address. "All of this results in delay or loss, frequently for persons who in all other matters would take ex treme pains to avoiu any loss for themselves or others." Carelessness and mistakes in ad dressing of mail have been re sponsible for more than 20 million letters and half a million parcels a year being consigned to dead let ter and dead parcel post branches, Mr. Summerfleld noted. And about $100,000 a year in cash that is lost in such mail Is not returnable to senders. In almost all cases, these losses are caused by poor address ing or failure to put a proper re turn address on the mail. Nothing Sells Like Newspapers ?
