Post Office to Save $50,000 Year with New Money Order Form
The Postmaster General expects annual government savings of about $50,000 from a redesigned money order form that is longer and eliminates mail advice to postmasters.

Meanwhile, plans for a model town in Kentucky near Evansville promise utilities for all residents, and a new German airship, the Deutschland, inaugurates scheduled service with 20 passengers on a 300 mile route.
