13. All spoiled, voided, and canceled checks will be transmitted monthly to the General Accounting Office in accordance with General Regulations No. 35.

14. Unclaimed or undelivered checks properly payable should not be canceled, but if undelivered after three months, should be transmitted to the General Accounting Office for safe-keeping and final disposition. (Bulletin No. 3.) Where the amount of an official check (or warrant) is not due the payee or his estate and is not properly payable, such check or warrant shall be voided or canceled, in accordance with General Regulations No. 35, the transaction properly recorded, and the check transmitted to the General Accounting Office.

15. The procedure for effecting payment of a lost, stolen, or destroyed check issued by a disbursing officer or agent of the United States who is dead or is no longer in the service of the United States, will be as directed in General Regulations No. 61.

16. As required by section 24 of the Permanent Appropriation Repeal Act, 1934 (Public, No. 473), this office will make a survey of all "funds in the official custody of officers and employees of the United States in which the Government is financially concerned, for which no accounting is rendered to the General Accounting Office."

17. Within thirty (30) days from the date hereof officers and employees, including marshals and clerks of United States district courts, will report direct to this office all funds in their official custody and for which no accounts are rendered to this office, setting forth (a) the sources from which received, (b) purpose, (c) amounts, (d) where deposited or how kept, and (e) to whom an accounting is rendered.

18. Account current, Standard Form No. 1019 (revised) and the continuation sheet thereof (no. 1019a), which are hereby prescribed for general use, will supersede Standard Form Nos. 1019, 1020, and 1022, when the supply thereof now on hand has been exhausted, but are not intended to supersede Standard Form 1021 now in use in the Navy, those in use in the Postal Service, nor form 79 used in accounting for internal-revenue collections.

19. Departments, independent establishments, and corporations for whose peculiar needs special forms of accounts current, vouchers, and/or schedules are considered essential will report the facts in regard thereto and submit drafts, in duplicate, of the form(s) required, for appropriate action by this office.

20. The Public Printer is authorized to destroy or otherwise dispose of the old plates and type matter pertaining to the standard accounts current forms nos. 1019, 1020, and 1022.

21. Upon receipt of these regulations each department, establishment, or corporation is requested to make requisition at once upon the Public Printer for a supply of the standard forms 1019 (revised) and 1019a which it is estimated will be required for the period ending June 30, 1935. In so doing it is understood and agreed by said departments, establishments, and corporations that they thereby consent to the plan of combining all the requisitions submitted and printing the total thereof in one edition to be delivered to the respective departments, establishments, or corporations, or placed in stock at the Government Printing Office, subject to their order, or partly delivered and partly placed in stock, as the case may be, and that they authorize the Public Printer to prorate the cost of printing and to render bill against each department, establishment, or corporation for its proportionate share on the basis of the number of forms ordered by it.

22. Hereafter requisitions for the printing of forms of accounts current other than the standard forms will not be honored by the Public Printer, except as may hereafter be specially authorized by this office, but this shall not be construed to prevent the department, independent establishment, or corporation from ordering printed on the forms used by them the title of the department, establishment, or corporation, the classes of accounts, and the titles of appropriations, funds, and accounts in the spaces provided therefor.

J. R. MCCARL, Comptroller General of the United States.
