Reports of the curtailment of mail
service were denied by post office offi-
cials of Ann Arbor yesterday. As-
sistant Postmaster C. W. Sanzig of
the local office said that the only dis-
advantage the department has to en-
counter is the irregularity of rail-
road service in connection with the
mails. He denied, however, that any
any of the delays in delivery can be
attributed to a lack of efficiency in
the ofEice.
