“Amount of Deposit.” The remarks are to be concise and definite, but brevity is not to be sought at the cost of omitting information likely to be of value to the Secretary in arriving at a decision.
265. Care should be taken to properly describe tenders which are for more than one service. Where no tender has been received, the service is to be entered and the fact stated.
