Social correspondence drives most air mail growth
Postmaster Myron J. Parkinson cites a Post Office survey showing social or personal letters make up 70 percent of air mail from Syracuse. He notes businesses use air mail more but occupy less space, and that air mail reaches across the nation in under a day. The 1947 average domestic airborne leg was 1,402 miles and the typical air mail piece weighs under three-fifths of an ounce.
