Cation said postal authorities recognized the need to improve the noting that Postmaster General E. T. sen told a Washington, press conference- that "special delivery service tor many years has been a disgrace." The new program is based on using plastic "speedy bags," to keep special delivery mail from getting lost among 'the other mail, Mr. Cation said. The plastic bags will be imprinted with the Postal Service Eagle and "speedy" and "special delivery" in green ink.

Mr. Cation said all special delivery mail would be placed in speedy bags, whose markings would be seen even when the mail pouch was closed. Upon arrival of the mail, Mr. Cation said, the speedy bags are processed first. To insure rapid delivery, he said, "Special delivery mail is best deposited at a post office where it can move promptly to the station that will finally deliver it.

Mailers should consider whether a particular item should go via air mail special delivery to insure fastest possible movement in transit as well as at the destination."
