Postoflices Use NewType Orders A new money order form is now being used by postoffices. "To curb the raising of postal money orders, the postoffice de- 1 partment has redesigned the monf J order form at first and second class post offices, including the stations and branches," Postmaster Harold Webb, Morehead City, announced today. The purchaser's application has been discontinued. In the new form the amount requested by the pur chaser is written in the money blocks on the order, the purchas er's receipt and the post office stub, and then a rubber stamp im pression is inserted in the proper space to indicate the next higher amount in multiples of $10. For example, Mr. Webb pointed out, a money order showing the figure 6 in the dollar block bears a rubber stamp impression show ing TEN in the proper space. An order written for any sum between $10.01 and $20 would bear a rub ber stamp impression of the word TWENTY, etc. After detaching the post office stub and partially separating the purchaser's receipt, the order is handed to the patron. It is the purchaser's responsibility for en tering his name and address as well as the name of the payee. The money orders are the same as cash until the payee's name is written thereon, according to the post master.
