When the route to be followed and the transportation services to be utilized for mails dispatched during the statistical period are unknown or uncertain, the Administration of origin shall, at the request of the Administration of destination, prepare for each dis- patch a bulletin, green in color, conforming to Form C 19 hereto appended. The Administration of origin may also send such bulletin without a formal request from the Administration of destination, if circumstances appear to require it. 2. The letter bills of the dispatches which give rise to the prepara- tion of the said bulletin shall be marked at the top with the conspicuous notation: Bulletin de transit (transit bulletin). The same notation, underlined in red pencil, is entered on the special Statistique (statistical) labels mentioned in Article 153. 3. The transit bulletin shall be sent in open mail, together with the dispatches to which it relates, to the different services which partici- pate in their transportation. In each country concerned, the ex- change offices of entry and departure, to the exclusion of all other intermediate offices, enter on the bulletin the information concerning the transit effected by them. The last intermediate exchange office sends the bulletin C 19 to the office of destination. The bulletin is then returned by that office to the office of origin in support of the Form C 17. When a transit bulletin whose issuance was requested or is announced at the top of the letter bill is missing, the office of destination is bound to make inquiry about it without any delay.
