Post Office Denies Money Order To Lottery Head
A Indianapolis post office refused a money order for 81 payable to M A Dauphin of New Orleans citing restrictions on sending funds to the Louisiana lottery. Fort Wayne postmasters report no such prohibition and say orders to Dauphin can be issued, suggesting a nationwide policy discrepancy. The piece shifts to a health report noting 14 625 deaths last year from various illnesses, urging strict sanitation and isolation practices to curb diphtheria and other diseases, and calling for sanitary conventions to share ideas.
