American Legion
Gives Out Checks
Checks went out this week to
various organizations in town and
on the Naval Station from the
Jack Allman American Legion
Post No. 17, according to George
Cornelius, post commander.
Funds were made available
from the proceeds of the Armed
Forces Dance, sponsored by the

Collect Extra
For Postage Due
An extra fee of 5 cents is now
being collected on each postage
due item at the local post office,
Acting Postmaster William H.
Lamme pointed out today, and pa
trons should be cautioned against
using airmail envelopes with a 3
cent stamp, as the receiver will
have to pay 8 cents to get it.
No matter what service is de
sired, if a printed airmail enve
lope with the colored border is
used, airmail postage must be
paid, he added. Crossing out the
word “Airmail” and leaving the
airmail border is not sufficient.
This rule is strictly enforced, he
pointed out, so that in mail han
dling airmail envelopes will be in
stantly recognizable as such and
given the most expeditious han
dling.
Mail from points around the
island contains a great number of
airmail envelopes with a 3 cent
stamp and additional postage
must be collected. Three cents is
the correct island rate per ounce
first class if a plain envelope is
used, although the rate for these
will be 4 cents after August 1
when the general rate change
goes into effect.
UNEMPLOYMENT DECLINE
SHOWN IN ESC FIGURES
The Unemployment Compensa
tion Fund balance as of June 30,
1958, was $140,000, according to
Merrill E. Weir, director of the
Employment Security Commis
sion. The amount owed the Fed
eral Government due to borrow
ing under the Reed Bill now
stands at $5,265,000.
During the month of June, 1958,
$398,000 was paid out in benefits
as compared to $702,000 in May
of this year and $247,000 in June,
1957. These figures continue the
recent trend which has shown
substantial seasonal declines in
unemployment benefits paid but
also shows unemployment much
higher than at the same period
in previous years.
