Properly packed parcels please postal people

---

By MOLLY HUNTER Living Today Writer It's that time again when the world begins thinking about holiday mailing — the time of year when millions of packages are delivered safely and on time — or not delivered safely and on time

Undeliverable packages, mainly due to improper packaging by the sender, is something that is and probably always will be a problem. There will never be a system, according to J.K. Lee Sr., Postmaster, that will be 100 percent damage free.

The greatest percentage of undeliverable packages begins with improper packaging by the sender. "If the package is not wrapped properly, the sender is doing himself a disfavor." Mr. Lee said.

He added that the post office tries to improve the system all the time by encouraging the sender to pack his parcels properly. Mr. Lee said the secret to whether it gets to its final destination or not is in the strength of the box that is used and the cushioning inside of the box.

Mr. Lee mentioned that the post office used to encourage the use of string in packaging, but now with the many varieties of tape on the market, such as the nylon reinforced tape, it encourages the tape instead. The post office discovered string to be susceptible to getting caught on various objects in contrast to tape.

The post office discourages the use of department store boxes — they simply are not strong enough. As for cushioning, the post office suggests plenty of newspaper, tissue paper, styrofoam or some kind of foam padding.

"Believe it or not," Mr. Lee said, "we have actually gotten packages that are simply brown paper bags stapled at both ends." he said.

Mr. Lee explained a new nationwide system that has been worked out. When a clerk accepts a package at the window, he must initial it in the lower right hand corner of the box. This helps identify who accepted the parcel, so if a parcel is improperly packaged, it is brought to the attention of the clerk responsible in order for him to become aware of such things in the future.

Last April. Mr. Lee devoted a great deal of time working with a group of men at the Atlanta Bulk Mail Center to identify any damage points at the center. "We worked day and night studying each point in the process of handling, loading and conveying. We went to extreme lengths to pad and cushion various points that we found to be hazardous in the loading process and handling of the bulk mail, such as the bars at the end of the slides and the eight miles of conveyer belts, which involve many sharp turns. There was quite a bit of equipment modification after this study." he said.

The result? A significant reduced number of damaged packages. Tossing and throwing has also been completely eliminated from the loading process, he added.

One may ask the common question about what happens to the packages that are never delivered.

If the package has any sort of identification anywhere on the outside or inside of it, it is given "first aid treatment", which usually involves taping up loose flaps with the strong nylon reinforced tape. This sort of thing, according to Mr. Lee, is usually detected during one of the sorting stages — it is extracted from the group, put in a plastic container and sent to "rewrap." Books, Mr. Lee stressed, are the most common problem since they are so heavy. They have a special machine that places metal bands on the box of books to insure against any more damage.

But then there are the packages that have absolutely no identification what-so-ever on the inside or out.

These parcels are sent to the Dead Parcel Office, which is a center strategically located throughout the United States. At the Dead Parcel Office, they are held for 60 days in order to give either the sender or receiver plenty of time to send out a tracer or file a claim on the parcel.

The articles are stored at the Dead Parcel Office according to what they are — there are bins for anything from shoes to photo albums.

If a claim or tracer has not been sent out within 60 days for a particular article, it is put up for public auction.

A claim, explained Mr. Lee, can be filed at any post office in the country — it does not necessarily have to be filed at the sender's or receiver's points. The same thing is true with a tracer.

The undeliverable packages will keep piling up as long as the sender continues to wrap his packages improperly. And, as Mr. Lee said, besides the fact that the sender may be improperly packaging the parcel, there is no system that is going to be 100 percent fool proof. But the public can help.

So, taking just a few more minutes of your time to look for a roll of tape or to check the strength of your box or to find a few more sheets of newspaper to cushion the articles can make the difference.

---

THE RIGHT WAY — Sandra Andress, window clerk at the main post office in Mobile, is happy to receive a package properly wrapped with enough tape to secure the package at all points. This package will probably reach its destination without any trouble because the sender took the time and the little bit of trouble to wrap it properly for mailing.

EDITOR'S NOTE -- Ever since the fated day when a curious yellow rock, found in a canyon, turned out to be uranium, the lifestyle of Grants, N.M., has been boom and bust. Now it's boom again -- as never before. But like every silverlined cloud, there's a dark side too.

---

By ROBERT LOCKE Associated Press Writer GRANTS, N.M. (AP) -- Once upon a time this town called itself the carrot center of the nation, a modest boast, and its 2,000 people led the typically modest lives of tillers of the soil. Then one day in 1950 a Navajo shepherd named Paddy Martinez, wandering through nearby Poison Canyon, picked up some peculiar yellow rocks and brought them into town. Over the next decade the population leaped to 10,274 and Grants's agricultural face underwent profound change. But like many another boom, it ended as quickly as it began. The government, sole buyer of uranium in the early 1960s, found itself overstocked. Almost overnight, nearly a fourth of the town's population moved away and many who didn't, looked back fondly on the old carrot days. Now, once again, Grants has become one of the boomingest towns in the nation. The resurgence began about 1967, cautiously at first, when private firms began buying uranium against the day nuclear reactors would produce significant amounts of electricity. Then in 1974 the price of New Mexico's milled uranium jumped from less than $8 a pound to one recent contract of $41.50 a pound. "I think it's just great," said Larry Baca. Last year Baca, 19, was pumping gas for $2 an hour. Now he makes $15 an hour in a mine. Half of all the uranium known to exist in the United States is in a 100-mile strip of west-central New Mexico. Near the center of the strip is Grants. Once again the Grants population is booming -- as of now about 12,000 and climbing -- and once again the city is experiencing wrenching growth.

---

City Manager Anthony Vasilakis remains confident the boom can be contained. "Here's what we'll do," he said. "We'll get some state money somewhere along in there. Then the feds will come along and we'll be able to match some of theirs, and we'll build these basic lines -- the collector lines and the water lines -- some of that. "Then the subdivider will come along, and he'll pay for every damned thing he does -- every water line, every sewer line, streets, curbs, gutters, everything. So they give us a turn-key job of property that's completely developed, with people living on it and paying taxes. Then you have the money to move a little bit farther." Meanwhile, housing remains a critical problem. The brakes were applied to construction when Gas Co. of New Mexico placed a moratorium on new natural gas hookups in the area. The company said the Federal Power Commission had limited its allocation of interstate gas for New Mexico, the nation's fourth largest producer of natural gas. The moratorium is only now being lifted after six months. At nearby San Mateo, population 300, house trailers hide behind centuries-old adobe homes. At the Spanish-Indian village of Bibo, trailers are scattered helter-skelter inside wooden corrals or stand alone on concrete foundations. At the Laguna Indian Pueblo they appear in anachronistic contrast with earth-colored homes, whitewashed missions and wooden outhouses. Not surprisingly, some who are prospering by the uranium boom also have mixed feelings about its effect on a way of life. "I didn't feel too bad about the uranium when it was far [guess: from] here," said Arthur Candelaria. [guess: "I] now that it's right at our doorste[guess: p], [guess: I] 't like it too good." Candelaria, 40, said [guess: his] family dates back to the ori[guess: ginal] [guess: settlers] of [guess: north] of

of changes. And it'll get worse. It's going to ruin the whole town." On the other hand, Oracio S. Marquez, who has lived in San Mateo nearly all his 59 years, sees some benefit. "We used to make a living out of farming and ranching and that's about all we knew," he said. "I used to go outside the town and work part of the year, then come back and stay five or six months at home. Now there's several uranium companies out here and we all work for them. One group that surely has more money are the natives of the area whose ancestry dates back even further. About half the New Mexico uranium production is on Indian land (with about 25 per cent on private land and the remainder about evenly divided between state and federal land). Tourists still leave Interstate 40 to photograph the scenic pueblo, but from the highway you can't see the television antennas that sprout from nearly every adobe roof. The Laguna Indian Reservation -- Laguna Pueblo (3,500 people) -- may be on the verge of middle class. At Paguate, one of five outvillages of Laguna Pueblo, an old Indian man stood beside a pinon fence he built 50 years ago and contemplated the gigantic gash in the earth that is the Jackpile mine. He didn't, he said, object to the mine. Instead he seemed awed by its grand proportions. He tried to explain its depth and breadth and the huge machines that take great bites of the earth. He repeated the story of Paddy Martinez and wondered "if that old Navajo's still alive somewhere." He was sorry to hear that the man who discovered the uranium died in 1968. The old man said there's plenty of money in Paguate now. His sister had a new room added to her house and "a lot of people just bought a bunch of houses to rent and then they moved off to Albuquerque." "They get a lot of money from that

mine, my people do." Roland Johnson, Laguna's governor, said there's very little opposition to the mine, "but there is a concern. The Pueblos revere earth, and for many people it is, in their eyes, criminal for us to be abusing Mother Earth as we are." Another concern, throughout the New Mexico uranium belt, is even more ominous. It is summed up in a warning sign posted near the door to the Laguna tribal office: "If you have rocks, sand or mining waste from the Jackpile-Paguate mine or the arroyos below the mine, please contact the governor's office. This material may be radioactive and hazardous to use as building material." Much of the opposition to the uranium industry revolves around the issue of radioactivity. The tailings left by the mines and mills around Grants contain radium, which produces as it decomposes a radioactive gas called radon. Some research has associated radon with cancer. The mining companies say the tailings pose no danger because they are kept behind fences on private property. Environmental groups want the tailings buried or in some way removed completely from the environment. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has not taken a public position. The state planning officer, Dr. Grace Olivarez, has estimated that by 1990 the tailings piles could contain 220 million tons -- "enough to cover Albuquerque to a depth of 22 inches." And, she added, there are no state or federal regulations governing the disposal of uranium tailings. The danger of radiation is debated almost endlessly, but not in Grants. "We don't get too excited about it," said Jean Fisher, director of the Grants Chamber of Commerce. "It just doesn't seem to bother us. Maybe that's because we're prosperous and we like it."

EDITOR'S NOTE — There's almost no chance that Dan Cooper, who parachuted from an airliner with $200,000 strapped to his body, is still alive. But if he is, the statute of limi-tations for his skyjack runs out Thanksgiving eve.

By JOE FRAZIER Associated Press Writer PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A miserably wet, windy, cold Thanksgiving eve in 1971.

Passengers wailed at the Northwest Orient Airlines counter at Portland International Airp[or]t to book space on Flight 105 to Seattle.

Many thought ahead to family reunions, turkey dinners, long relaxed conversations and perhaps a traditional game of bridge or Monopoly later. But one didn't.

Dan Cooper paid cash for his ticket, then, clutching a paper sack, boarded the Boeing 727 for the 30-minute flight.

A few minutes after the plane nosed into the storm, he made his move. He showed the stewardess what he said was a dynamite bomb and demanded four parachutes, $200,000 in $20 bills, and "no funny stuff."

All the passengers but Cooper got off at Seattle, unaware that anything was amiss.

The money and parachutes were put on board and the jet, with only the crew and Cooper aboard, headed for Reno on Cooper's orders.

Then somewhere over southwest Washington, Cooper, with the 21 pounds of money strapped to him, bailed out.

He hasn't been heard from since.

If he's alive, and that's a big "if," the five-year statute of limitations runs out this Thanksgiving eve, Nov. 24.

Or does it?

"We're going ahead on the assumption that the statute doesn't apply, because when he did what he did, capital punishment was a possibility. There's no statute on capital crimes," says FBI agent Ralph Himmelsbach.

Anyway, he says, chances are good that Cooper is dead.

"Not one of the 10,000 bills has shown up, and we know the serial number of every one of them," he said. And Cooper apparently knew nothing about skydiving.

In a business suit and street shoes, he jumped from the rear door of a jet going 197 m.p.h. at 10,000 feet. At that elevation it was seven below zero that night, with a wind-chill factor of 69 below zero.

The plane was in clouds. "Up looked like down to him. He had no visual reference. He couldn't have possibly known where he was."

The other was a training chute used for demonstrations. The panels had been sewn shut. It wouldn't have opened.

The next night the FBI re-enacted the skyjacking using the same plane, crew, fuel load, speed and altitude. The test helped flight engineers and meteorologists to compute the probable drop zone to be a trapezoidal area covering about 25 square miles.

It has been searched and researched in vain.

What would it take to find Cooper's remains, assuming they are there?

"I'd say it might take 5,000 men five years. I mean, how do you search a blackberry thicket higher than your head?"

Loggers who work in the area agree that coyotes, mountain lions or wild dogs could make quick work of a body. After five years, they say, you might find a scrap or two of bone, if that.

Nevertheless, for a while Cooper was a fol[k] hero of sorts. He was nacho. He was daring. He didn't hurt anybody, but he ripped off a big corporation. And he beat the fuzz.

Mr. Tommy's Timely Beauty Hints

HAIR LOSS Q. I thought hair grew faster in the winter, but mine seems to be falling out by the handful. A. Contrary to an animal whose fur thickens in winter, human hair grows faster in the summer, due partly to your increased physical activity. If you're losing a lot of hair, pull one hair from the scalp and check for a broken end. If the hair has a broken end, conditioners can help. However, if the end is bulb-shaped, you should consult a dermatologist as this is an indication of internal problems that may be causing excessive hair loss.
