To Remain Open

Washington-No change is planned at this time in the status of the Chester Gap P6st Office, Representative John O. Marsh, Jr., has been informed by the Post Office Department.

Some weeks ago postal officials indicated that they were considering either reducing the office to a rural station or serving the patrons from a rural route.

“After reviewing additional information we have determined the post office should retain its independent status at this time," A. C. Hahn, Deputy Assistant Postmaster General, wrote Marsh, who had urged retention of the post office.
