Cutbacks in postal budget creates changes
Postmaster General W. Marvin Watson has moved to comply with the employment cutback required by Congress under the recently enacted tax bill (Public Law 90-364) by ordering some postal services and hiring curtailed. “This is not a matter of dollars but of people,” Postmaster General Watson explained in a tement issued in California, where he is inspecting postal facilities. “Under the manpower restrictions imposed by the tax bill we simply will not have enough people to continue all postal services at their present level.” “Hopefully,” he said, “Congress will correct this situation.” “The department agreed with the need for a cut back in funds for the fiscal year that began July 1. We are not asking for a restoration of any money cut from our budget. We believe we can operate within our budget and maintain postal services at or near their present level if wedo not have to reduce employment to the June 1966 level.” The following actions were ordered: Effective July 27 all Saturday and Sunday window service at first-and second-class post offices will be discontinued. Effective July 27 Saturday collection of mail from street de-
posit boxes will be adjusted to conform to Sunday collection service. Effective immediately postmaster vacancies existing or occuring in third-and fourth-class offices won’t be filled and vacancies existing or occuring on rural routes will not be filled until it is determined whether the route can be consolidated with another one or eliminated. Some 250 fourth-class post offices will be discontinued effective August 2 and another 97 fourth class offices will be discontinued August 30. Arrangements will be made to provide rural delivery service to the persons effected by the shutdowns. Postmasters also have been directed to submit to the department by September 1 their plans for the elimination of all Saturday delivery on city residential routes. The effective date for the elimination of Saturday residential delivery will be established later by the department. The tax bill requires the post office department to reduce its employment to the level of June 30, 1966. This will mean a reduction of 83,238 positions. To make the cutback in jobs, post offices have been ordered to fill only three out of four vacancies as they occur.

DEAR FOLKS: Onci* in awhile—and that means just once in awhile— if you’re real sweet to a restaurateur and you brag on one special dish, he may eventually give you the recipe for something he’s famous for. I’ve always wondered how restaurants keep corn on the coh from shrinking and drying out. Anyhow, the best corn I’ve ever eaten was at a cafeteria. The corn looked like it was in milky water, but oh what a good taste it had. After eating at this neighborhood place a few times and getting on the friendly side of the manager, he told me his secret. He said it was boiled in water that contained a little bacon grease and a teaspoon of sugar. And before putting the corn out on the steam table, he put some oleo and a wee hit of milk in the pan. Then slowly poured in his hot water, “dunking” the corn underneath it. I’ve tried this method at home and find it absolutely number one. 1 also learned that if there was any leftover corn, to put it completely under water in a wide-mouth jar and put it in the refrigerator. It will keep two or three days this way. And you know what? Cold corn is wonderful when cut off the coh and sprinkled on top of a lettuce and tomato salad. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: Please warn mothers about leaving electric knives laying around. When through using, always disconnect it from the wall plug immediately. A friend’s daughter dropped the knife, picked it up and touched the button by mistake. She was badly cut. Sophia Russ * * * You are so right, Sophia. Electric knives are wonderful to use, but should he handled carefully. Heloise * • * DEAR HELOISE: For those mothers with small babies who don't have a car bed, I’ve found the most practical and inexpensive thing in the world. A plastic, wicker-like, laundry basket. I placed a large folded blanket in the bottom of a basket, then placed a small pillow on top. This makes a very comfortable bed for home or travel. In the car, I always secure the seat belt around the basket. Not only does it make a good car bed, but after the baby is older, it can be used again for its original purpose. Thinkin' Mom • * * DEAR HELOISE: When traveling with my children, I attach a small plastic shoe bag to the back of the front car seat. It holds small toys and possessions the children always w'ant to carry with them and are usually scattered about the car. Happy Mother • * * DEAR HELOISE: Does anyone know how to preserve fresh fruit, such as strawberries, pears and peaches, in a home freezer so that when thawed they are not mushy and turn dark quickly? I have not been successful with mine. I need help. John E. Nobbs * * * How about it gals? Our friend, John, needM help. Let’s
not let him down. Just pick up that pencil and w rite to / Heloise in care of this paper. Sure would love to hear from you. Heloise # * f DEAR HELOISE I read the hint about reaching a window shade cord if it was too high with a wire coat hanger. Well, I think I have a better idea. Make a "hook pole" out of an old broom handle and put a giant cuphook in the end. I use this to pull down shades, adjust valances, etc. It is so handy and l find many uses for it. Mrs. K. J. Robinson This column is written for you . . . the housewife and homemaker. If you have a hint, problem or suggestion you'd like to share . . . write to Heloise today in care of this newspaper.
