If the public will cooperate by mail ing their Christmas parcels DURING NOVEMBER, we can handle a small volume o f light* last-mniute mailings, such as cards, up to December 10 - - but we cap that and ftvofd an em ergency only if November Is yftally ‘Christmas mailing month’* Postal officials pointed out that the volume o f mail now is far; above any previous records, that, railway cars by the hundreds have been 'd i verted to way service and- that the air lines have only about half as many planes as they once operated, More than two hundred thousand extra temporary employees normally are employed to,help With the holiday postal rush. This year, the extra! employees will be largely women and high school boys and girls who are unable to work the long hours usually ■required Jand whose work w ill be relatively slow, To deliver the Christmas mails on time, therefore, it is necessary that mailings he spread out over a longer period so that available transportation equipment and postal personnel can be used more during more weeks. It will bti utterly impossible to make the deliveries hly Christmas I f mailers wait until the last three weeks before the holidays, as In normal years. There is another reason for shop-, ping and mailing earlier than ever be fore. Retail stores are short-handed. Purchasers can avoid shopping 111 crowded stores, long, waits fo r service! and other inconveniencesuo f late: shop, ping if the buy now.
