Carriers Plan Sunday Work Protest Meeting
Branch No 47 of the National Association of Letter Carriers formed plans at a Gallagher's Hall meeting for a public mass meeting next Sunday afternoon to protest Sunday work. The venue is undecided but may be a theater or the YM YW Building. Postmaster Charlock will preside and several prominent postal figures will speak. The aim is to end Sunday work or cap hours and close the carrier windows on Sundays, hoping Washington will grant the request. Delegates to the State convention in Asbury Park on May 30 were named: Newfroy, Sullivan, Adams, Walsh, Lacey, and Donovan.
