Ambassador Davis Warns Americans
of Shipping Conditions.

/ WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-Ambassa-
dor Davis at London cabled to the
state department yesterday that it is
practically impossible to obtain return
passage to the United States from Eu-
rope at this time. Officials said that
this condition was due to the use of
SO much tonnage in bringing Ameri-
can troops homeward and to the gem
eral congestion of trans Atlantic traf-
fc.
In the case of the issue of pass
ports to officials or others who desire
to visit Europe for short periods,
said Mr.. Davis s message, l deem it
necessary to state for your information
that it is practically impossible TO OBJ
tain return passage TO the United
States at the present time. You may
wish to advise applicants according,
