All employees of the Department should govern themselves by these 
instructions in the applicable cases. Attention is particularly invited 
to the fact that Standard Form No. 1060, "Temporary receipt," should not 
be used unless there is reasonable certainty that a bill of lading was 
executed by the consignor and has been either delayed in transmission or 
Lost; 
The availability of a procedure in the absence of the Government 
bill of lading should not be permitted to encourage neglect on the part 
of employees to use Form 1058 for express shipments chargeable to the 
Department and to provide as far as possible for such use by private or 
commercial consignors. The effort should be to maintain the instances 
of nonuse of the form at a strict minimum. (P. B. A. Circular No. 151.) 
In order to properly identify the Government Bill of Lading, 
issued on receipt of a shipment, with the company's delivery record of 
Government shipment or commercial bill of lading, the waybill number 
shown on the delivery record or sommercial bill of lading should be in- 
cluded under "Description of Articles" on the original and memorandum 
copy of the Government Bill of Lading. and the Government Bill of Lading 
number put on the delivery record or commercial bill of lading. The 
memorandum copy of Bill of Lading (Form 1058a) should be promptly forward-— 
ed to the Accounting Office of the Bureau.
