I suggest that card senders ask themselves if it is possible for those on the receiving end to have a merry Christmas and a Happy new year. We lost our daughter two years ago. Christmas for us is now a very sad time. Just a simple note saying would be appreciated. Every today a crossword thinking of you Quot time we receive a Christmas card wishing us a Jolly Holiday season i ask myself How people can be so insensitive. How can we have a Happy Holiday season when or daughter who was the Light of our lives is dead. Grieving Parent dear Friend the cards you consider hurtful Are expressions of Friendship from people who want you to know they Are thinking of you. Please Contact the compassionate friends and ask for their literature. This is a National organization made up of parents whose children have died. They Are Able to ofter the kind of emotional support that is unavailable anywhere else. Send a self addressed stamped envelope to the compassionate friends . Box 3696, Oak Brook Iii. 605223696. A Dollar to help defray costs would be greatly appreciated dear Ann Landers.

As chairman of the postal operations and services subcommittee i am extremely concerned about the increasing emergence of deceptive mail. Experiences like a a hoodwinked a Quot Are no longer the exception they Are the Norm. As a result of such fraudulent mailings i sponsored the deep Piave mailings prevention act of 19%. This legislation requires the use of a disclaimer for any solicitations by non governmental organizations which use official looking emblems titles seals and insignias that could be interpreted As implying Federal  this is not a government document Quot must appear on the envelope directly below the postage stamp. In addition a this product or service or organization has not been approved or endorsed by the Federal government must appear in typeface which is at least twice the size of Normal typeface. If you or your readers receive a mailing that does no to conform to these standards please Contact your local postmaster or the postal inspection service which will then handle All complaints. When a mailing violates the Law the Mailer faces civil penalties for false representation. Sincerely Frank Mccloskey House of representatives Washington do. Dear rep.
