KING CITY NEWS Phone King 55R“ The help also generously accord- ed. as in other years. by the news- papers is also deeply appreciated. By publicizing the various mailing dates and other pertinent informa tion, the newspapers assisted greatly in assuring the public sup- port which was so helpful to us.” Christmas mail has been steadily increasing and this was again the case this year. when more than 250,000,000 individual items were handled. Careful planning and greatly augmented staffs are, of course. necessary to cope with such a flood of mail. All of our own efforts, however. would have coun- ted for little if the public had not cooperated by observing the sug- gested mailing dates. The public, therefore. deserves the credit for what we have been able to accom- plish. To one and all I wish to say “Thank you!"
