October 10, 1939Mr. Horace H. F. Jayne, Director, The University Museum, 33rd and Spruce Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

My dear Mr. Jayne:

In reply to your letter of September 29, 1939, you are informed that the passport of Mr. George H. McFadden, has been stamped "Not valid to any country in Europe" and is returned herewith. You are requested to advise Mr. McFadden that in view of the dilapidated condition of his passport the Department can give him no assurance that he will not have difficulty in travelling abroad with that document. Mr. McFadden may therefore desire to apply for a new passport.

Sincerely yours,

Handwritten: R. B. Shipley

R. B. Shipley, Chief, Passport Division
