POSTIL EMPLOYE
IS REWARDED FOR
DEFENSE OF MAIL
PATRICK F. QUINN, SEVERELY
WOUNDED BY ROBBERS, PRO
MOTED TO FOREMAN
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. (^—Pat
rick F. Quinn, the postal employe
| who was injured protecting the mails
from highwaymen in Elizabeth, N. J.,
on October 14, 1926, has been com
mended for his bravery and efficien
cy by Postmaster General New.
In a letter to Mr. Quinn, Mr. New
said that he had directed that the
postal employe be promoted to a
position of foreman in the 'Elizabeth
post office. A high tribute was paid
by the Postmaster General to Mr.
Quinn for his efforts “in endeavoring
to protect the mails from robbery at
the hands of armed, desperate high
waymen who sought to take your
life.”
Mr. Quinn was a clerk in the Eliz
abeth post office at the time of the
robbery.
The full text of the letter, signed
by Postmaster General New to Mr.
, Quinn, follows:
Mr. Patrick F. Quinn,
Care Postmaster, Elizabeth, N. J.
My dear Mr. Quinn: While you
have received from me a telegram
under date of October 14, 1926, ex
pressing my sympathy for the in
juries sustained by you in protecting
the mails, I feel that this should be
supplemented by a personal letter of
commendation to you for preserva
tion by you and your posterity, and
lor inclusion in the personnel records
of tl\is department and the post of
fice of Elizabeth, N. J.
Deeds of valor are not confined
exclusively to fields of battle, but
just as high a type of courage is dis
• played in emergencies and contin
gencies arising in civil life which are
oftentimes passed over lightly and
soon are forgotten. The signal brav
ery displayed by you on October 14,
1926, in defense of the United States
mails and in upholding the honor of
the service is but one more illustra
tion of the many that have been i
given of the loyalty, devotion, and j
willingness to hazard his life by the
postal employe in defense of his
trust.
Speaking for myself and the whole r
postal organization, I want to again j
express to you sincere appreciation
of the courage, devotion, and loyalty I
which was displayed by you on Oct- j
ober 14, 1926, in endeavoring to pro- |
tect the mails from robbery at the
hands of armed, desperate highway
men who sought to take your life.
That you should have sustained
grievous wounds in your valorous
efforts I sincerely deplor, but it is {
my hope that your recovery will be >
speedy and complete.
The postmaster of Elizabeth has
recommended your promotion to the
position of foreman in the Elizabeth
post office, predicated not alone on
the desire to reward you for your
conspicuous act of bravery, but upon
efficiency. It has given me pleasure
to direct that you be promoted to the
position of foreman at $2,500 per an
num in the post office of Elizabeth,
N. J., effective December 16, 1926,
and I hope for you every success in
your new position, for wrhich I feel
you are not only equipped but so
worthily deserve.
Sincerely yours,
Harry S. New.
Postmaster General.

FRENCH SPOKEN AGAIN
PARIS, Jan. 19. fjp)—In some of
the big hotels of Paris the French
language has begun to be heard dur
ing the last weeks.
During the months when the franc
was low and the capital was filled
with tourists, it was not often that
one heard French spoken in most
hotels.
