REMITTANCES OF CURRENCY

THIRD ASSISTANT POSTMASTER GENERAL,Washington, September 20, 1933.

It appears that postmasters at some offices are construing the notice pub-lished in the POSTAL, BULLETIN of September 8, in regard to description ofbills in remittance letters, as authority to discontinue making remittancesby means of bank checks.

That notice was intended to apply only to places where banking facilitiesare lacking. The Department desires to avoid the sending of currency inthe mails as much as possible and all postmasters who have heretofore usedbank checks or drafts in making remittances of official funds should con-tinue to do so.
