MEt 4220 LEADING COLORED FUNERAL DIRECTORS fUMnl. to Fit tlto nniti UBouranmoB Charles F. Anderson, 69, Dies; Byrd Expedition Postmaster Was Known as Most Widely Traveled Man In Postal Service Charles Franklin Anderson, post master of the second Byrd Antarctic Expedition and known as the most widely traveled man in the United 8tates Postal Service, died yester day afternoon at his home, 1332 Montague street N.W., after a long Illness. He was 69 years old. It is estimated that Mr. Ander son, who was retired from the postal service June 30, 1938, had traveled more than 2,600,000 miles in line of duty, and that he visited approxi mately 26,000 post offices, including all first class offices, and most of the second and third class offices In the country. m During the World War he visited every Army camp in the United States, and during his career had visited nearly every county in the country at least once. In 1934 Mr. Anderson, who was then handling philatelic work, was sent to Antarctica to handle the philatelic mall there with the sec ond Byrd expedition. He set up a post office in a cavern 25 feet deep in the shelf ice at Little America, and for two weeks averaged 23 hours of work a day, cancelling philatelic mail in time to get it out on the return trip to New Zealand. Canceled Huge Amount of Mail. Alone, he canceled so mucia mail that when it was backstamped in San Francisco, seven persons worked five and a half days fr6m 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. doing the same Job. Canceled and pouched, the mail was loaded on dog sledges and taken from Little America to the edge of the shelf ice for loading. Because of shifting of the floe ice, the ship was unable to approach. For 26 hours Mr. Anderson was left alone with the mall without food or water, while the edge of the shelf crumbled and dropped into the sea. closer and closer to his position, before it be came possible to rescue him and save the mall. He received the Second Byrd Ant arctic Expedition Medal, awarded by an act of Congress to members of the expedition. Mr. Anderson was bom May 15, 1875, at Clifton, Va., the son of the late Joseph and Mary Anderson. He attended the public schools of Clif ton and Falls Church, Va.
