MUST PUT MORE POSTAGE
ON FOREIGN LETTERS
Many letter* mailed tn Richmond
or foreign countries which are sub
ect to the postal union pontage rate,
ire prepaid «ily two cent* and send
rt are apparently under the imprea
don that thla domestic rate U ap
iltcable, but Postmaster Kdgar Al
an. Jr, pointed out the error Sat
urday.
Thu belief, on the Part of many
people, causes much unnecessary
*ork for employes of the post-office.
It entails the collection of the re
tired fee for postage at the destl
nation of the letter, which in doubled
by failure on the part of the sender
to properly atamp mail.
The only foreign countries to which
the two-cent rate applies are Canada,
Cuba. Mexico, New Foundland, Ca
nal Zone, Republic of Panama,
Shanghai, China. Germany, by direct
steamers only; Scotland, Wales and
Ireland.
letters directed to all other coun
tries must bear a flvs-cent stamp for
the first ounce or fraction and three
cents for each additional ounce.
