A separate book will not be needed for each account, except where required by the volume of business, but each account should be kept separately in the appropriate book of abstracts.

Care should be exercised that no document be credited upon any abstract which has not before been debited in the same account. This can very easily be prevented if the indexes are properly kept.

Art. 82. Quarterly returns of tonnage. Quarterly returns will be made to the Commissioner of Navigation, consisting of a transcript of the foregoing accounts, accompanying which must be transmitted all surrendered originals and copies of all lost originals.

Every surrendered document should be indorsed similarly to the record thereof in the record book. Quarterly returns of tonnage should be accompanied by a letter of transmittal (Commerce Form 1201).

When the name of a recorded vessel is changed and indorsed on the certificate of record, the form of the quarterly abstract will require an additional column, in which the new name will be inserted.

Transactions under the title "Vessels built," "Vessels lost," "Vessels abandoned," "Vessels sold to aliens," "Foreign vessels admitted to registry," or "Change of home port, rig, tonnage, or dimensions" should be reported on Commerce Form 1200 and forwarded with the quarterly returns of tonnage.

Collectors will transmit to the Commissioner of Navigation at the end of every month an abstract of all registers, enrollments, and licenses, on Commerce Form 1208, surrendered to them which were issued at other ports. Accompanying this abstract will be sent all such surrendered documents.

Upon receipt of these surrendered documents the Commissioner of Navigation will send notice thereof to the ports at which they were issued. Collectors on receiving such notice will make the required credits upon their quarterly abstracts and indexes.

When there are no transactions a notice to that effect will be sent. (Commerce Form 1209.)

Art. 83. Lists of vessels.-Collectors at the several ports will, within three months before the close of each fiscal year, revise the list of vessels owned at their respective ports; and in cases where the ship's papers not having been returned, or notice otherwise given, there is reason to suppose the vessels have been lost, sold, or documented elsewhere, they will make inquiries concerning them, and upon receipt of satisfactory information of loss or sale, the proper indorsements thereof will be made in their record books and the proper credits upon their quarterly abstracts.

Art. 84. Measurement of vessels.-The regulations governing the measurement of vessels are contained in a separate publication issued by the Department of Com
