Leap Nows When to Quit at Indianapolis Post Office
Albert Leap resigned as financial clerk at the Indianapolis post office but no action was sent to Washington. Postmaster H W Bennett delays forwarding the resignation, saying Leap understood it should proceed. Leap’s six months of absence and the hold up separate him from the main office and a substitute now draws his salary. Leap was a Republican figure, a former finance clerk, and sought another government post amid contention with a former postmaster.
