To the Editor of the "Norta-Cumya Dany News"
Sm,—I had a little dispute with the management of the Rue Massenet Post Office when I presented a local registered letter with ten one-cent stamps. I was exceedingly surprised to see them refuse to accept my letter at first, but finally submitting, telling me that under no circumstances they will accept such a letter next time.
Could any of your readers, acquainted with Post Office Regulations, enlighten my mind whether they were right to act in the way they did, when they themselves furnish the public with one-cent change and refuse to accept the same in payment, or whether there are any rules governing such claim.
