"As fae failure properly to prepay
letters for foreign countries appears
to be the result in many cases of
an erroneous impression ns to the
application of the United States do
mestic rate, postmasters should adopt I
all measure? practicable to give no- I
tice to the public that the only des-I
tlnations to which the two eent rate
applies are Canuda. Cuba, Mexico/
