TELEGRAMS BY TRAIN
Raids Dislocate Mails
"Telegrams sent by train, letters lying on railway stations, for days, and telephone lines com- pletely out of action without ap- parent reason-these are among the complaints which are being made to the Post Office," says the "Daily Telegraph."
"The Minister for Supply, Mr. Herbert Morrison, announced that 'very heavy delay was inevitable. Business men, whose job it is to keep the nation working behind the war machine, understand that delays may sometimes be heavy. They cannot accept that they must be unsuitably heavy when other essential services manage to carry
on.
"It is known that one telegram despatched to Surrey took three days to travel 25 miles. Letters are taking a week to reach their de- stinations. The average delay is about four days. Mail bags have been left untouched for days on main line stations."
The "Daily Mail" says, that post-offices in London will remain open after raid warnings.. The. offices are being made blast and splinter proof.
