THURSDAY. SEPT. 30, 1937 THE FRANKLIN PRESS AND THE HIGHLANDS MACON I AN PACE SEVEN AIR MAIL WEEK OCTOBER 11-16 Postmasters Make Plans For Celebration In North Carolina CHARLOTTE, Sept. 29. Post masters of North Carolina are en tering enthusiastically into plans for celebration of North Carolina Air Mail Week, according to Post master Paul R. Younts, of Char lotte, who has been named chair man of the Air Mail Week com mittee. The i observance of Air Mail Week, which has for its purpose making North Carolina air mail conscious and to impress upon business men the great value of the use of air mail, is being spon sored by the North Carolina asso ciation of postmasters, with the full cooperation of Eastern Air Lines and the postoffice department. President Wythe Peyton, of Ashe ville, appointed Major Younts gen eral chairman and announced plans for placing every town in the state with a landing field on the air mail route for one day. The observance will be on the week of October 11-16. Harllee Branch, second assistant postmast er general, has pledged full cooper ation in making the observance successful. On October 12, Eastern Air Line planes will make stops at all of the cities , and towns in North Carolina with landing fields to pick up air mail. The air mail from all of the eastern cities will . be taken to Ra leigh and placed on E. A. L. planes there. Air mail of towns and cities in western North Carolina will be brought to Charlotte and taken on by one of the six planes' making daily stops here. Both planes will start from Kitty T-TtL-' mliorA . lino tiirn r,oc Krrtl when the Wright brothers first flew a plane soon after the turn of the century. ' . ' ', Beautiful cachets are being pre pared for each of the 50 or more towns and cities that will be on the one-day air mail route. A replica of the Kitty Hawk Memorial will be on the cachets. From this point they will differ with each town and city having its own individual cachet, bearing the slogan of the city, some date of important significance, or some other material of which the city is civic conscious. Postmasters Ln each of the air mail stops are planning to contact representatives of civic clubs, busi ness organizations, city and county officials and others who can aid in making the week a success. Appropriate ceremonies will be arranged at each of the points, and officials in Charlotte and JRaleigh will give appropriate greetings to the special planes when they ar rive from their pick up trips. The officials in every city and town in the state having a post office will be urged by the post master to give the airmail a trial, and indications are that the co operation in the observance will be almost 100 per cent .throughout the state.

Under its jurisdic tion are 19 western North Carolina counties. In the first few months, accord ing to Graham Martin, manager, the work of . the local field office was primarily of an informational character. Through the press, radio, and talks before civic organizations, members of the field office staff attempted to bring; about a wider understanding of the old-age in surance program. Through coopera tion of employers, civic clubs, and others, over 35,000 pieces of expla natory informational material have been distributed. On July 1 the postoffice depart ment turned over to the field of fice the task of assigning social security account numbers. From that date through yesterday over 10,000 account numbers have been issued from the Asheville office. While there is a' considerable number of employees who have not yet made application for numbers, Mr. Martin estimated that the greater part of iSie employees in this area have already received numbers. While, this work will con tinue, the field . office will devote the major portion of its time in the future to the development of claims .under the old-age insurance plan. . - Through September 21, 58 claims have been filed with the Asheville field office. Thirty have been paid, and the others are now being ad justed. Employees who have become 65 since the first of the year, are en titled to receive 34 per cent of DEFINITE RELIEF OR MONEY BACK THE WnXiAUD TRE A TMKNT has brought prompt, definite relief in thousands of cases of Stomach and Diiadanal Ulcer, due to Hyperacid ity, and other forms of Stomach DU- lr$s due to nicest Acta, ivld on II DAYS TRIAL.
