Abstract: The annual report of the International Bureau of the Universal Postal Union for 1947, made public in April 1948, showed that the resumption of postal relations had continued so that with few exceptions international postaFservice could be considered as reestablished in all the countries of the Union. It was estimated that the total figures of area and population which was currently being served were roughly the same as before the war: 131.7 million square kilometers and 2,079 million inhabitants. The Bureau, which had established direct mail connections with all the Administrations of the Union, also published a listing of postage stamps of all sorts. A new edition of the List of Addresses of Postal Administrations was produced and the Directory of Postal Offices begun in 1945 was continued. No communications concerning past or present disputes under Article 11 of the convention had been received. The total expenditures of the International Bureau for 1947, less receipts, were 701,932.35 Swiss francs.
