perty, should be reported to the Secretary on Form 170, inscribed with a statement of that fact.
237. Safes issued in any postal district are to be invariably reported to the Chief Postmaster first.
238. Laxity in regard to the custody of safe and office keys must be carefully guarded against, and due precaution must be taken to prevent access to post-offices with the object of robbery. Persons in charge of money-order and savings-bank offices are expected to exercise the utmost care in the custody of office and safe keys; and leaving such keys in a pocket or other easily accessible position in an open room is not a sufficient precaution. The need for the greatest care, both in regard to keys and to securing offices at night, must be emphasized by controlling officers.
OFFICIAL PUBLICATIONS.
239. The Post and Telegraph Official Circular, the Post and Telegraph Monthly Bulletin, and the Guide Supplement are published monthly. They are intended for the use and information of departmental officers. The Official Circular and extracts therefrom are confidential.
240. The non-receipt of any of these publications must be reported to the Chief Postmaster, who is responsible for their proper distribution.
241. The official orders contained in the Circular are to be extracted therefrom and placed among the rules in this book. A separate print of extracts permits of this being quickly done. Additional rules made from time to time must be noted in their proper places herein.
242. The monthly notifications respecting persons authorised to frank letters or telegrams, newspapers registered, offices opened, closed, or altered, &c., must be posted without delay into the respective printed lists, or into the Guide.
243. The Bulletin will always contain the latest information respecting the arrival and departure of mails by the various sea routes, and Postmasters should avail themselves of this when preparing mail notices or answering inquiries. The last numbers must always be prominently exhibited for public information.
244. The files of the Circular must be carefully preserved for reference. The Circular must be open for the perusal of all officers, and each officer on a staff must be required to initial an office copy of each issue.
