(f.) Charges for embossing private envelopes and impressing post-cards with the penny stamps are to be accounted for as Government Printing Office receipts.
801. Machinery-inspection Fees.—The Chief Inspector of Machinery furnishes Postmasters with schedules (accompanied by certificates and boiler plates) of the fees payable. These fees must be paid within the period indicated on each schedule, failing which a higher rate is imposed, particulars of which are also given on the schedule. The particulars of fees received—viz., name of person by whom paid, number both of certificate and schedule, period covered by payment, and amount—must be furnished on Form Acct. 190, under the special heading “Machinery Fees.” The date of payment must be entered against each entry in the schedule. If payment of any fee is not made within six months of the date of the schedule, the fact should be reported to the Chief Inspector of Machinery on the form provided for the purpose.
