6. From time to time it should be checked, by means of the attendance register and the inspectors’ cachet list, whether every inspector is using his appropriate cachet.
II. Accepting the Post

7. From now on, letters to be examined must be delivered by the Post Office, if local conditions require it, in closed and sealed post sacks, or in other lockable containers (baskets, boxes, etc.).

8. The acceptance of letters is always to take place in the presence of two employees of the Postal Supervision Office. To facilitate the exchange with the Post it is sufficient, when feasible, to entrust the same employees with these deliveries.

9. The post is to be distributed to the inspectors in exchange for a receipt. .For control purposes, special lists are to be kept of the arrival and departure of letters as well as of their distribution. Items objected to are to be listed separately (see also paragraph 24/25).

10. In order to prevent unjustified retention of mail and its smuggling in on the followin9 day, appropriate measures for establishing the date of arrival and departure of letters at the Postal Supervision Offices are to be taken. Where it is not possible to exert control of this kind by means of the postmark, it is suggested that letters forwarded by the Post Office should be stamped, on delivery, on the back of the envelope with a special time cachet for the various times of the day, for example:
P.U.
15.4.22.
7— 12v.

For each day, a particular stamp pad color would be used which at the latest on the 2nd.,3rd. or 4th. day - depending on the period; i.e., according to the number of stamp pads — repeats itself.

11. Express mail is always to be cleared in priority. If ordinary express mail (i.e., neither registered nor insured) is found in the bundles which usually contain 50 registered letters, the reception officer of the Postal Supervision Office is to be notified immediately. He must arrange for the immediate return to the Post Office. Likewise those labelled items, received from the German Post Office with a note: “R (Registered) from abroad via, e. Berlin W 8” are to undergo a strict examination to see if it is really registered. If possible the Post Office from which this mail was received is to be informed.

12. The letters which have not undergone examination by the Postal Supervision Office are to be given back to the Post office as quickly as possible.
