Terrible things happen to a nation's postal service when it's at war. Witness the very thick and very official envelope delivered to David M. Little, Master of Adams House, from the Bureau of the Census in Washington.
The Bureau asked how many patients there were in Adams House, a supposed "institution for mental patients."
They carefully sent a questionnaire to "Adams House" and the Post Office did the rest.
Gold Coasters vociferously denied any psychopathic tendencies at their House. Mr. Little prepared to inform the Bureau of its mistake and return unanswered the forms asking for the number of manic-depressive, schizophrenic, senile and traumatic patients--also alcoholics.
