Curb Waste and Limit Deliveries War Time Pact

A wartime trade council urges retail merchants to cut regular package deliveries to one trip daily where feasible and to charge twenty five cents for special deliveries. It also sets return rules, promotes carrying parcels, reduces C O D use, and calls for early shopping with full staffing to ease distribution. Merchant list includes Baxter Shoe Co and Spalding & Bros among others.
