Receipts during July at the Anaheim Postoffice amounted to $3,446.68, compared with $3,127.79 in July last year. Postmaster Harry J. Whitaker announced today. This is an improvement of more than 10 per cent. It includes sales of stamps, envelopes etc., but not money orders. Postmaster Whitaker pointed out a statement received recently from Washington, in which W. Irving Glover, third assistant postmaster, scores the practice of purchasing stamps, stamped envelopes etc., at offices other than those where they are to be used. Salaries allowance for clerk hire and even the classification of an office depend upon receipts, and it is only right that the same office which handles the incoming and outgoing mail should be given the benefit of the business. Otherwise a curtailed force is obliged to do a business out of keeping with its size, says Glover.
