An example of.the now typo o f address is: , 1 J ohn C, Smith 1 222 Mattapan Ave. Boston 18 Massachusetts ,k The number after tho name of tho. city indicates the branch post office (or “postal unit”) through which delivery is made. Each res ident of the large cities is asked by his postmaster to add the pos tal unit number to lus retujrn ad dress, and to notify all' to whom he writes that his address is not complete without tho number. ' Under the new plan, mail that is sent to large cities, carrying the postal unit number, will be distri buted more quickly than is pos sible now and with much less strain on the postal clerks. Whilo mail which does not bear the num ber will be delivered nbout as rap idly as at present, it will not re ceive tho benefit of the„ speedier distribution and may not avoid pos sible delays caused by inability of the depleted force of experienced employees to handle all the majl.
