 The international name "Constantinople" also remained in use until Turkey adapted the Latin alphabet in 1928 and urged other countries to use the city's Turkish name in their languages and their postal service networks.In 1929 Lloyd's agents were informed that telegrams now must be addressed to "Istanbul" or "Stamboul", but "The Times" stated that mail could still be delivered to "Constantinople".However "The New York Times" stated that year that mail to "Constantinople" may no longer be delivered.
