PRISONERS OF WAR
POSTAL COMMUNICATION Persons desirous of communicating with prisoners of war interned abroad are advised to acquaint themselves with the conditions under which communication is permitted. The Postmaster-General, the Hon. P. C. Webb, stated today that full information in this matter was available at principal post offices. Communications must not exceed one sheet of notepaper, both sides oj which may be used, and the name and address of the sender must appear on the cover of the letter or other article. These are two important provisions that are sometimes overlooked by correspondents. It should be remembered that in the main the restrictions are imposed by the country in which the prisoners of war 'are detained, and offending letters may not be delivered by the country of destination.
