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.'

They cannot accept that they must be unsuitably heavy when other essential services manage to carry
