The lists for each country, except the United States (including Hawaii) and Canada, must be numbered consecutively through each calendar year, commencing with No. 1 with the first list containing Orders issued in January, and ending with the list containing the last of the year’s issues. Money Orders issued but not advised on the 31st December must be entered in special lists, and the particulars of such lists must be carried into the Abstract of Advice Lists for December, notwithstanding the fact that they are despatched in January. (See Rule No. 182.)
-
The lists for the United States (including Hawaii) and Canada must be numbered consecutively, commencing with No. 1 with the first list prepared in July, and ending with the last list despatched in June each year. The first lists despatched in July each year will therefore contain the balance of June issues as well as those issued in July up to the time of the closing of the mail.

On the Advices of Orders drawn on the United States of America (including Hawaii) and Canada, the amount payable must be stated in the currency of those countries at the Chief Offices where the Orders are entered on the Advice lists. This amount must be placed at the right-hand top corner of each Advice, immediately below the amount in figures. Special rubber stamps are supplied to Chief Offices for the purpose.

The Advices for the United States and Canada must be entered at each Chief Office on their respective Forms of Advice lists, all the particulars being inserted which are required by the headings of the forms except the “Current number of International Order,” the particulars of which will be filled in at the Auckland Office, and the name of the county in the case of the United States, and the district in the case of Canada, which particulars are not required.
