Fields used to say, the, Canadian• Post Office is "still undecided for sure" on the three-digit zone system, About the only matter that • postal authorities are certain on is increased rates. First- class, second-class and third- class mail rates are pushed up and up to offset a growing deficit. The average Canadian can accept the increases in a day when everything costs a little more. That is, they C OU L,D accept them If the post office , showed signs of being efficient, But the three-digit mess is ,just one example of a growing list of financial goofs by postal authorities. Take a new 'Post Office corn- ,plex for the city of Toronto. Despite growing evidence that a mammoth transportation complex was going to"be an- nounced for the Union Station_ area, the Post Office went ahead and spent $1„ 600, 0110 planning a new building beside Union Station. Mayor William Dennison led tire fight to have this killed.. and now no-one is certain what type of post effice will be built for Toronto. But the $1, 600, 000 is gone. Last October, the three-digit system was introduced to Montreal and, in theory, was ,supposed to speed up deliver y of mail in Canada's largest me- tropolis. But companies who correspond" regularly with concerns in Montreal know that it takes longer sometimes for a letter to go to. Montreal from Toronto than it does to reach • London, England, from Toronto. But not to be thwarted, the decision was made to announce the new system for Vancouver and Toronto. An advertising campaign was dreamed up in Montreal, using the theme ."Your Number Is Up". This message appeared on billboards and was mailed to all households. The attempt at humor com- pletely backfired as some citi- zens took the crytic message as a death threat. Police •switchboards were flooded. In Vancouver, where th e budget wasn't as large as t h e $62, 000 allocated to Toronto, the campaign had Only nicely got „underway when someone in authority decided to put a hold on the operation. VanCouver heard that the three-digit program might not be with us for long -- the new gimmick was six digits, Thus Winnipeg and Ottawa held off their campaigns, Ham- ilton, Calgary, Edmonton, Lon- don and Windsor remained with a two-digit system and only. Montreal and Toronto were left with the three digits. - That's when the Toronto postal. authorities announc e d that citizens could either use the new system or the old. They advised companies NOT to change their mailing lists. The 10 university students hired by the post office in Toronto to work With com- panies on new zoning lists, were given other assignments.

Talk-of six digits was premature. "We were led to believe the three-digit system would be with us for 25 years," comment- ed Toronto postal official W, D. Baker. "It didn't last 25 days, " NoW Toronto and 'the other cities scheduled for, the three- digit program are awaiting the findings'of consultants, to be hired at great expense by tile Post Office to find out what system is best-for Canada. One would think that the Post Office had already looked into this matter thoroughly be- fore spending the money to convert to three digits. Obviously, they are now 'ad- mikting they didn't -- that is everyone except its leader, Eric Kierans. For the average Canadian, talk of two digits, three digits and six digits is just that -- talk.
