To facilitate the delivery of inland telegrams for members of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force in military camps or barracks in New Zealand, the Postmaster-General. Mr. Jones, has drawn attention to the necessity for senders to include the addressee's number. rank, battery, company or other section of the unit. To avoid the hardship of payment at tlie normal rate for such a long address, if has been decided that only live words will he charged for the address, irrespective of any larger number of words it contains. This concession, which will take effect from today, will be applicable for the duration of the war, but it will not apply to telegrams addressed to members of the force at a home or private address.
