WITH DEPARTMENT
FOR % YEARS

Mrs. Shipley has earned the
complete confidence Of the state
department by 20 years Of service.
She has worked up from $1,000
a year, as clerk. 10 Sc, 500 as the
first woman To head major divi-
sion in the state department, (she's
been passport chief since 1921.
A bit reluctant TO talk about her
self, she prefers to stick strictly
to business, with an occasional
concert for relaxation. Now a Wild
ow with a grown son, she shares
an apartment with her sister, who
holds highly responsible position
in the military intelligence diw-
sion OF the war department, as
chief assistant in the Latin Ameri-
can section.
One Of Ruth Shipley's greatest
sources OF pride is the financial
standing of the passport division.
Although she reluctantly admits
that the curtailment in passport
issuance and the increase in cler-
cal check-up has made inroads
into the credit side Of her ledger,
she still runs the division at a
profit, and recalls the assertion
made some years ago that the
passport division pays for the run
ming of the whole state depart
ment"

Keeping passport regulations up
with the changing conditions
abroad Is a major concern Of the
state department. Banning tray
81 on belligerent vessels bound
for combat zones was one Of the
first curtailments Of travel-loving
Americans. Then, one by one, ma
ton after nation was cut off the
approved list, until at the moment
only Portugal remains neutral and
accessible.
OF course American. can ret
passports for almost all these for
hidden goals-IF. Showing i'm
perative necessity for travelling
In Britain. Italy. or Rumanis IS
the first big ii. Newsmen, mill
tary observers, relief slministra-
tors. missionaries (medicsl and
otherwisel and business hig-wigs
are usually able TO persuade Ruth
Shipley on this first point, provid-
cd they have all sorts OF affidavits,
expense and transportation guar
sntees. and allow at least ten days
for all these things 10 be checked.
SOUTH ATLANTIC SINkINGS
CAUSED RESTRICTIONS
But wives and families are Ia
boo. About this Mrs. Shipley il
quite hard boiled. The sinking Of
the "Zamzam" and the Robin
Moor" brought about a stiffening
of the restrictions on this point.
These vessels were bound for
South Africa. well out of the COM
hat zone defined by President
Roosevelt. and hence were okayed
by the passport division at the
time. But, as Ruth Shipley says,
"the combat area has been spread
ing so rapidly of late, we have to
keep tightening up and restricting
more and more"
To offset the curtailment Of
travel to Europe and Asia there
has been a big jump in transit to
Latin America. Every state de-
partment proclamation limiting
travel is riddled with the phrase,
with the exception of passports
intended for use in countries of
the western hemisphere.
One big jump in western hem
isphere passports is due TO the
|. thousands of workmen, contract
ors and engineers sent TO get new
~ leased British-owned bases at
Newfoundland, Antigua, Trinidad
and Bermuda ready for action.
The new passports held by trav-
cling Americans are no longer the
old dark red of by-gone days.
They're a bright green, notified
with the pattern Of the u. 6. seal.
Into their planning and construc-
ton. according to Ruth Shipley,
has gone some Of the deepest, fan
eiest anti-forgery research on rec
ord. A forger would think several
times before trying to duplicate it.
When 1t comes TO tracing pass
port frauds and forgeres, Ruth
Shipley is in her element. An
tonic Monteforte, a forger who
headed an alien smuggling gang
at $500 a head. was one OF the
biggest operators she brought TO
justice. Her job doesn't stop with
experimenting the criminal. She

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Jerry MuSkrat watched Billy Mink
and Little Joe Otter start on their
| Journeys. Billy was going to a dis
| tant brook. Little Joe was going to
| the Big River. Both intended to
| stay away until they were sure the
| trapper, who had just begun to
make trouble along the Laughing
Brook, would be so discouraged that
he would take up his traps.
When Jerry had said good-by to
Billy Mink and Joe Otter there had
been something of wiStfulneSs in his
Squeaky voice. The fact is, Jerry
would have loved to go visiting also.
But he knew that it was quite out
Of the question. In the first place
he is slow traveller on land, and
he felt that on land he would be III
even more danger than If he stayed
at home, despite those dreadful
traps. Then, again, winter would
soon come and he must be prepared
for it if he would live through it.
Billy Mink and Little Joe Otter do
not have to prepare for winter, but
Jerry does.
SO Jerry sat on the top Of his
house and watched Billy Mink and
Little Joe Otter out of sight. Then
he sighed. Then sighed again. Il
suppose" he muttered, my troubles
are just beginning. These traps
Billy Mink told about were set for
him, but I know trappers well
enough to know that sooner or later
there will be some traps set eSpe-
cially for me-"
Jerry was quite right. Early the
next morning, as he was making
his breakfast on a lily root. he
caught sight of some one coming
down the Laughing Brook 1t wasn't
Farmer Browns Boy. 1t was a
stranger. This stranger kept stop
ping and examining every old log
in the water and every hole along
the bank He stopped at three of
Jerry's favorite eating places and
studied them. Jerry knew just what
that meant.
That's that dreadful trapper,"
Thought Jerry. he trying TO flnd
out where am in the habit of going
so that he may set traps there. It's
clear to me that from now on
shall have to watch my step every
time I move"
After the stranger had left, Jerry
swan to the places where the
stranger had stopped At each one
OF them his nose was tickled with
a delicious smell At one place he
smelled carrot. and Jerry is very
fond of carrot. At another place he
smelled apple, and if there is any
one thing that Jerry Muskrat likes
1t is apple. He was greatly tempted,
was Jerry Muskrat. 1t seemed to
him that he must go ashore and
get those good things TO eat. But he
didn't. He just plunged his head
under water SO that he could no
longer smell those things and then
swan over to his house TO think
things over.
