NEW AMERICAN
PASSPORT
The Passport Division of the United States Consulate "General here is very heavily pressed at the moment in issuing a new form of passport which all American clti- zens abroad must have.
The old-style American passport with red cover becomes null and vold after April 10. The "new passport, a document in a blue cover, contains some differences in the wording. It carries with regard to requirements of and restrictions on the holder.
the new
Warning regarding passports was given on Feb. 10, and 60 days grace has been given all holders of the old-style pass- ports to change them for the new. A notice warning Americari re- sidents in the Colony" regarding the new passports has been put up at the American Club,
な
This is the first occasion on which the United States Govern. ment has issued instructions for a return of all old passports, principal object of the change be- ing to facilitate the seizure of any old-style forged passports."
A further insurance against the new-style passport being forged is provided by the new requirement that, every passport issued or renewed abroad bear the thumb print of the Consular official issu ing it. The Consul General here, Mr. Addison E. Bouthard, expects to have 3,000 of his thumb prints taken within the next few months.
