Commenting on the significance of national letter writing week, the postmaster poirfted out that each year since 193iAbis ivent has been observed as a reminder of the real meaning Os i personal letter. Emphasizing the traditional sanctity of the letter mall, Kirsch reminded Decatur residents that one of the basic American freedoms is the uncensored transmission of their first class mail. It is the most valauble possession of the citizens of a free country. "We all know the human importance of letter writing,” Kirsch stated, "the way in which it holds scattered families together, of giving comfort and love and news to all the people of the land. But its value is immeasurably greater than that. Its implications are almost infinite. We in America have the privilege of uncensored and unlimited means of communication. With this in mind, I urge all citizens of Decatur to'Jbin the poiit office department in this national celebration. Let’s make national letter writing week tdr 1956 the greatest ever.” Fort Wayne Attorney Pardoned By Craig INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Governor Graig today pardoned Walter E.
