It seems to us too that a stay at the hostel would be of great value to you in learning English and American ways. Of course as you know probably from your conversation with Miss Reynolds of the Quakers, there is a waiting list and it might be some time in November before you could proceed there. So that we may place your name definitely on the waiting list, will you let us know PROF. WILLIAM ADAMS BROWN whether you will go if we can secure the opportunity for National Committee DR. ALBERT W.

Es erscheint uns, dass ein Aufenthalt in IOWA- HOS* tel der Ihr Bestreben, englisch zu lernen und amerikanische Gebraeuche kennen zu lernen, von groesstem Wert istAus der Unterhaltung mit Miss Reynolds von den Quae kern wissen Sie wahrscheinlich, dass da eine Warteliste besteht und es kann immerhin November werden, bis Sie sich dorthin begeben koennen. Damit wir Ihren Namen definitiv auf die Warteliste setzten koennen, lassen Sie uns bitte wissen, ob Sie gehen wollen, wenn wir Ihnen die Gelegenheit sichern koennen. In der Zwischenzeit werden Miss Reynolds und ich in unsern Bemuehungen nicht nachlassen, fuer Sie einen Platz zu finden, wo Sie englisch lernen und XXXXXMensen Dienst im Rahmen Ihrer koerperlichen Faehigkeiten leisten koennen. Nach Erhalt Ihres Briefes habe ich mit Miss Benneyan telefoniert und ihr auseinandergesetzt, warum Sie zu dem Appointment nicht kommen konnten. Sie und ich haben eine Unterhaltung vorgesehen, um zu sehen, was wir machen koennen um Ihnen zu helfen, sodass wir Ihre Anwesenheit jetzt in NY nicht benoetigen. en 17. Oktober 1941. Liebe Miss DAY, Vielen Dank fuer Ihren Brief vom 15.d.M. Ihre freund lichen Zeilen haben mir viel Mut gemacht. Ich bitte Sie sehr, zu veranlassen, dass ich endgueltig auf die Warteliste gesetzt werde. Es wird sich fuer mich Gelegenheit finden, die Zeit bis November gut auszunuetzen. Soeben war Miss FIRESTONE hier, der ich Ihren Brief zeigen konnte. Sie zeigte sich ueber die Aussicht fuer mich sehr erfreut. Montag, Dienstag und Mittwoch gehe ich jetzt hier in die Abendschule, wo ich aber leider nicht die schnelle Foerderung erfahren kann, wie ich sie mir wuensche. Die Teilnehmer am Beginner Kursus sind zu einem grossen Teil schon laenger im Land, zum Teil schon einige Jahrzehnte. Sie koennen alle soviel englisch sprechen, wie fuer den Tagesgebrauch noetig ist. Sie koennen daher ohne Muehe die-ausgezeichnete- Lehrerin verstehen. Aber die wenigsten koennen lesen und schreiben. Daher wird ein grosser Teil der Lehrkraft von diesen elemansienten Notwendigkeiten in Anspruch genommen. Und da glaubt Miss FIRESTONE mir helfen zu koennen. Sie hat mir in Aussicht gestellt, dass ich an zwei Abenden in der Woche noch einen Einzelunterricht haben kann und zwar bei einer Dame, die auch etwas Deutsch spricht, sodass ich ihr sagen kann, worauf es mir ankommt. Ich danke Ihnen ganz herzlich fuer Ihre vielen Bemuehungen um mich, besonders fuer die verstaendnisvolle Art, in der sie sich meiner annehmen.

Perhaps she may be able to render a special contribution to the American effort of overthrowing the Hitler regime. Mrs. Juchacz was a leading deputy of the Reichstag from 1919 to 1933. She was at the same time a member of the Executive of the German Social Democratic Party and president of the" Arbeiterwohlfahrt", famous cultural and social workmen's association, which had thousands of Locals in all German communities. There is no doubt that still today she is in high esteem among the masses of Germany's industrial population. She is a Gentile and, in spite of her 62 years, a very energetic and active personality. That is why she could be of special value in propaganda work against Germany. As far as I know, one of the departments of the O.P.M. is carrying out regular radio propaganda in the German language into Germany. It is the office of Mr. Herbert Harris and Mr. Paul Porter. I think Mrs. Juchacz, her name being so well known in Germany, would be an excellent participant in such a service. I am quite sure you have an opportunity to present this idea to the proper authorities. with kindest regards Very sincerely yours, Rudolf Katz American Friends Service Committee 20 South Twelfth Street Philadelphia Pennsylvania FOREIGN SERVICE SECTION Chairman, RUFUS M.

PAUL J. TILLICH REV. EWART EDMUND TURNER REV. EDWARD J. WALSH MR. MICHAEL WILLIAMS MR. MATTHEW WOLL Dear Friend: The American Committee for Christian Refugees is writing you at this time to assure you of its continuing interest and wish to be of service during these critical times. The fact that the United States is now at war with Japan, Germany and Italy has given rise to many exaggerated rumors regarding the probable fate of clients from those countries. We wish to emphasize the public statements of several officials that our government is taking careful precautions to see that all non- citizens coming under the category of" enemy alien" who strictly observe all rules prescribed by the Attorney General will not be interned or subjected to undue hardship because of alien status. In a speech in Detroit on December 7th, Attorney General Biddle made it clear that there was no reason for aliens loyal to the United States to be unduly concerned. Mr. Biddle stated:" It is no secret that the Department of Justice has made plans for the protection of enemy aliens in case of a more severe emergency. We have good reason to believe that most aliens in our country are peaceful and law abiding. We will apprehend the alien trouble makers, but we will protect the others against persecution and discrimination." Refugees from enemy countries, that is Germany, Japan, Italy and Austria, and natives of those countries who are now considered stateless, come under the classification of" enemy alien." The American Committee for Christian Refugees is here to help you in every possible. Please bring your questions to use and be assured of our sincere understanding and earnest desire to serve the best interests of all concerned. MR. K. BRENT WOODRUFF Executive Director MISS EVELYN W.

As you know, for years the American Friends Service Committee has been trying to help persecuted people in many countries in Europe. We know your experiences. We can sense something of the heartbreaking concern you have for your relatives and friends from whom you are separated. We know, too, that the uncertainty of these days must create new problems and doubts as to your immediate future in this country. We are enclosing a digest of the President's recent proclamations regarding German, Italian, and Japanese nationals in this country. Certain restrictions are imposed upon you. We believe our Government will make every effort to exercise fair and careful treatment of aliens. Attorney General Biddle has already urged Americans to realize that in most instances aliens are here legally and are loyal to our institutions. We must seek adequate resources to become centers of quiet and spiritual assurance in all parts of our country, and we must face the future calmly. The responsibilities yours and ours are great. are great. We believe you will assume yours with renewed determination and courage. We trust we can continue to be worthy of your confidence in us, as your friends. Together we will hold fast to our faith Dad that the day is coming when the world in which we are living will have and will acknowledge a new respect for the simple dignity of mankind. AMERICAN FRIENDS SERVICE COMMITTEE 165 West 46th Street 139 CENTRE ST. NEW YORK CITY Sincerely your friend, Rufus M Jones Rufus M. Jones. DIGEST OF RECENT PROCLAMATIONS BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES REGARDING JAPANESE, GERMAN AND ITALIA NATIONALS quoted from Interpreter Releases, Vol. XVIII, No. 57 December 10, 1941 published by the Common Council for American Unity 222 Fourth Ave., N.Y.C. Sources: Proclamations of the President of the United States Department of Justice On December 7th the President of the United States issued a proclamation in regard to the status of" natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects of the Empire of Japan" who are within the United States or any of its outlying possessions and in regard to the conduct to be observed by them now that they are" alien enemies". On December 8th he issued similar proclamations in regard to German and Italian nationals or subjects. In pursuance of the authority vested in him by the three proclamations, Attorney General Francis Biddle has been taking into custody Japanese, German and Italian citizens who are deemed dangerous to the peace and security of the United States. According to information released by the Attorney General on December 8th," it is estimated that less than 1000 Japanese nationals will be affected"; as yet no information is available as to the number of German and Italian nationals who already have been taken into custody or who are likely to be. The Attorney General has, however, given definite assurances that only persons against whom there is damaging and fairly convincing evidence will be apprehended and that they will all be accorded a fair hearing before tribune ls which are now being set up. The suspects are being taken into custody by special agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and afterwards turned over to the Immigration and Neturalization Service. The Attorney General as stated above, is determined that so far as possible there shall be no injustice done to or undue hardship inflicted upon these enemy aliens. An excerpt from a press release issued by him on December 8th and dealing with Japanese nationals is of interest in that connection." There are in the United States many persons of Japanese extraction whose loyalty to this country, even in the present emergency, is unquestioned. It would, therefore, be a serious mistake to take any action against these people. State and local authorities are urged to take no direct action against Japanese in their communities but should consult with representatives of the Department of Justice." The same desire to avert injustice is shown in identical telegrams sent by the Attorney General on December 9th to Governor Stassen of Minnesota who is chairman of the Governors' Conference and to Governor O'Conor of Maryland who is chairman of the Law Enforcement Committee of the Council of State Governments; the telegrams read as follows -20 " Proclamations were yesterday issued by the President covering Japanese, German and Italian nationals in the United States under which nationals of these nations believed to be dangerous to the public peace and safety have been apprehended. I have wired all United States Attorneys to request state and local officials to furnish the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which is in charge of the apprehension of aliens, any information which they may have and not to take any direct action in making the apprehensions. The Department of Justice for some time has been preparing for this emergency. Those who have been apprehended have been carefully selected and will be dealt with according to prepared plans. These plans have been made in order to avoid disturbance and confusion, which would. inevitably lead to retaliatory measures by the governments of these nationals towards Americans under the jurisdiction of those governments. Regulations have been issued and published with respect to the conduct of all enemy aliens. I request that you use your influence with state and local authorities and state and local defense councils to cooperate with me so that the Federal Government may enforce these reasures in accordance with the program outlined and in assuring the public that all proper precautions have been taken to apprehend enemy aliens deemed to be dangerous and to prevent molestation of all peaceful and law- abiding aliens." Restriction on Activities and Conduct of Enemy Aliens An important feature of the President's proclamations are a number of rules and regulations for the conduct of enemy aliens; it is expected that more will be issued shortly. Outstanding are the following: - ( 1) If it is found to be necessary for public safety and protection, enemy aliens or as they are called throughout the President's proclamations, alien enemies will be barred from the neighborhoods of forts, camps, arsenals, airports, power plants, reservoirs, docks, shipyards, etc. ( 2) ( 3) - No enemy alien may use or have in his possession, custody or control( a) firearms of any sort, bombs, ammunition of any sort, etc.; or( b) shortwave radio receiving sets, transmitting sets, signal devices, codes or ciphers, cameras, photographs, drawings or maps of military and naval facilities, equipment, posts, camps, etc. No alien enemy may ascend into the air in any airplane, aircraft or balloon of any sort" whether owned governmentally, commercially or privately" unless he is authorized by the Attorney General or the Secretary of War to do so. ( 4) Enemy aliens may not have access to any highway, waterway, airway, railway, subway, etc.," not open and accessible to the public generally and not generally used by the public". ( 5) The Attorney General has been authorized to compile a list of organizations and groups in which enemy aliens may not hold membership or office and in whose activities they may not in any way participate. ( 6) Enemy aliens may not change address or occupation" or otherwise travel or Eove from place to place" without full compliance with such regulations as the Attorney General or for Canal Zone, Hawaii and Philippine Islands, the Secretary of War, may make; this applies to enemy aliens in any territory under the jurisdiction of the United States.

My dear Mrs. Juchacz: J We are so happy to be able to write you today that the Professor of Religion at Wellesley College, one of our most prominent women's universities, at Wellesley, Mass., has invited you to come and stay with her in her apartment in Wellesley, until April. We had written to Professor Louise Smith about you, following her proposal to take someone into her home, as her contribution to refugee service. You will have no special duties to perform for Miss Smith, but of course, will be expected to share with her the responsibility of keeping up the apartment. I believe that Professor Smith's knowledge of German is limited, so that you will thereby have an excellent opportunity to learn and improve your own English. Will you write me promptly, informing me whether you are willing to accept this invitation? With the same mail, we are writing to Miss Firestone, and asking her to plan with you for the trip to Wellesley, as well as help you make application for permission to travel to that point. There are special application forms for permission to travel, issued by the District Attorney's office, which you can obtain from that office% 3B possibly Miss Firestone has them; but you must appear at the District Attorney's office yourself in order to file the application. We are trying to work out arrangements whereby you would receive pocket money during this period, so that you would not be dependent on Miss Smith for personal necessities.

My dear Mrs. Juchacz: January 20, 1942 We have just telephoned with Professor Smith, and you will be glad to know that she has understood your situation very well and wants you to know that this new decision has not disrupted her plans too much. Youmay leave for Scattergood just as soon as you get permission from the District Attorney's Office, and I remind you to get the pink and white cards from the post office again in case you had already filled out the ones I sent you with the information pertinent to the Wellesley proposition. Miss Firestone was good enough to call me this morning, and I told her that I would write you today giving you final instructions about proceeding to Scattergood on which she has kindly agreed to cooperate again. We will, of course, send you the additional funds necessary to cover the travel expenses. We will appreciate it if Miss Fireston will try to get you a charity rate ticket from Meriden to Chicago, but full- rate should be paid from Chicago to Iowa City which is the nearest railroad station to Scattergood, as otherwise it will be disagreeable trip from Chicago, and you will arrive at an unearthly hour at Iowa City. In Iowa City you will be met by someone from Scattergood Hostel. There will be an hour or two wait in Chicago and you will, undoubtedly, have to transfer from one station to another, but you can make arrangements on the train for this transfer. Please write me at once when you will leave Meriden and the exact hour at which you arrive in Iowa City, so that we may inform Scattergood Hostel. There are very few people who will get off at Iowa City and there is no question that the Scattergood people will recognize you. When you get off just stay where you are, and MR. K.

Roberts Road Bryn Mawr, Pa. January 27th, 1942 Dear Friend: The United States Government is going to issue Certificates of Identification to German, Italian and Japanese nationals now classified as" alien enemies." This will protect you when you go about your daily life. It is goin to be simple and there is nothing to worry about. You will read in the papers that you must file applications starting February 9th and ending February 28th at the Post Offices. The papers will give further instructions. It will be necessary that you bring your alien registration card. The Department of Justice realizes that many aliens have not received their cards. If you do not have it, I therefore advise that you write at once to: Mr. Donald Parry Alien Registration Bureau U. S. Department of Justice Washington, D. C. Also state in this letter whether you lost your card or never received one; your nationality; your present address; where you registered in the United States. at a counsular office, state where. If you registered Send this letter registered mail, return receipt requested, and save the carbon copy of your letter. This will give you a receipt to show when you apply for your identification certificate if you have not received the alien registration card by then. Once more-- DO NOT WORRY about not having the card, because the authorities mow that many cards have never been issued but you do have to make an effort to apply for it again. Sincerely yours bile day Case Worker INFORMATION ABOUT CERTIFICATES OF IDENTIFICATION FOR ALIENS OF EVERY NATIONALITIES I Persons required to apply:- a All aliens who are of the age of 14 years or upwards and who are German, Italian, or Japanese citizens or subjects. b.

You have heard more through the papers about Certificates of Identification since our last letter to you and are probably prepared to register very soon, if you come within the group that must register. In our last letter we described to you those who need not register and those who do have to register. If you have any doubt as to whether you should or should not register, we shall be very glad to talk over with you the rulings. If you have any doubt, it is always better to register. In our last letter to you we wrote asking you whether you had in your possession your Alien Registration Receipt Card and suggested that you write to Washington if you did not have your card in your possession. We are finding that many people have received no answers to their letters to Washington. We shall be very glad to make another attempt for you to get your card before you register. If you do not have a card, will you write us BY RETURN MAIL the following information: As soon as we receive your answer, we will send your name to Washington along with the others, and we have been promised an answer immediately. We have received copies of the applications for Certificates of Identification in the office of the American Committee for Christian Refugees. Washington has given permission to have these blanks filled out in offices like ours so that you may take your blank, filled out, to the Post Office. MR. K. BRENT WOODRUFF Executive Director MISS EVELYN W. HERSEY Associate Director 10 -2Many people have come to us with questions. The case workers, therefore, will be very glad to answer any questions about what is meant on the blanks and get any interpretation of the questions that you need. Would you like to make an appointment to come in and talk over the blanks with your case worker? If you know of any other non- Jewish refugees who would like to have our help on these blanks, tell them we would be very glad to do this, even though they are not at present clients of the American Committee for Christian Refugees. You probably have the following pieces of information, but we are adding it for your convenience: TIME IN WHICH TO REGISTER February 2nd through February 7th- Far Western States.

I am glad to have the information finally clarifying the travel document on which you were admitted to the United States, but according to the date of expiration which you have sent us, March 15, 1941, this travel paper had expired before you left for this country. Were you not required to have an extension to this before leaving France, or were the French authorities and others to whom you were required to show the document satisfied with the American visitor's visa which had been issued to you in September, 1940? Kindly advise me on this point. It is not necessary for you to send back to us the copy of the forms which you have kept, as long as you save them. Yes, we have received from Dr. Kraus a letter agreeing to write a letter of reference for you, but such a letter is not necessary ( only the names and addresses of the references listed), either for the Forms I- 55 or for the new Certificate of Identification. We have included your name on the list sent to Washington for the Alien Registration Receipt Card numbers. We will let you know as soon as we have an answer. In the meantime, should neither you nor we obtain your Alien Registration Receipt Card number, you understand that you must apply for your Certificate of Identification within the limited period. When you receive your Identification Card, please let me know the number. Sincerely yours, Плива das Helen Day, Migration Worker MR. K. BRENT WOODRUFF Executive Director MISS EVELYN W. HERSEY Associate Director 10 HDay/ rm Marie Juchacz was born in Landsberg on the Warthe on March 1819. Education: She went to a public school for eight years. Language: She speaks and writes German and is now learning English. Employment: I n her youth she worked in an institution to mentally disordered patients. Then she was after her marriage a house wife for several years, and later in Berlin a ladies' dress maker for several years, until 1913. After this she became Secretary of the Socialdemocratic party ofologne with the special responsibility of organizing work among women. From the out break of the war from 19% until 1917 she was active, ex-officio in the welfare work for children and mothers, affected by the war. 1917 she became Secretary of the National Executive Committee of the German Social Democratic Party and leader of the women's Bureau of this organisation. Also in 1919 she was one of the founders of the labor Welfare Association[Arbeiter Wohlfahrt] an remained a member of the Executive Committee of this association until 1933. This association included more than 10000 voluntary workers in all of the cities of Germany and in rural districts. Among other activities the Labor Welfare Association mantained homes for children, homes for reconvalescents homes for maladjusted girls, and a school for training social workers. She was also one of the publishers of the monthly magazineᵃ"Die Ar= beiterwahlfahrt." When the war ended in 1919 she continued her work; she became a member of the German National Assambly at Weimar and later of the parliament(Reichstag). In May 1953 after her emigration to the Saar territory she established an eating place, at which refugees active in the Saar fight against Hitler could get their meals and find a daytime home.

Copy for Mrs. Juchacz For your information To: Jean Reynolds Re: Merie Juchacz MEMORANDUM From: Hertha Kraus Date: 1-5-1942 I wonder whether your statement of December 18 is still correct, namely that M.J. will be able to proceed to Scattergood during January. W111 this plan be affected by Nora Hackel's going to Scattergood, or have you not accepted her definitely? I know that Mrs. Juchacz is anxiously waiting for a word from you or Helen Day. Both her friends have left Meriden and she does not feel that she should stay any longer in the home which has given her hospitality for so many months. She had an invitation to go to New York to stay with some friends, as I said in my memo of December 12th, but she could not proceed there, because they live, I believe, in the Navy Yard or some other area restricted for aliens. I would be very grateful if you would write to Marie Juchacz very soon. Copy sent to Marie Juchacz wiss: 1 I'd write welche von Ihren zwei D. Rügen. am aen Dez, ist is noch correct manlich dass M.

Woodward Mrs. Marie Juchacz Scattergood Hostel West Branch, Iowa Dear Marie Juchacz: I am always glad to see one of your courageous and wise letters, and of course, I am ever so much pleased that you like and understand Scattergood and what Friends are trying to do. Don't worry about not writing more letters; every busy person understands that completely. It is only the idle ones who usually complain about not receiving letters. I read your little paper" One day in Scattergood" and I think it shows immense progress in English. I also heard that your Scattergood counselors are very satisfied and are quite( confident that they can help you to find an opening in the not too distant future. I don't think, however, that it should be in the teaching line. What would be your own preferences? Would you care to make a list some time and let me know, since you now know a good deal more about America and the way we work here than at the time of our last discussion.

Hertha Kraus Consultant -Ratgeber recht vertrauen d x ganz Copy for Marie Juchacz Do you know anything about her? MEMORANDUM To: Par Danforth Re: Pauline Schwickert International House 1414 East 59 Street Chicago, Illinois From: Hertha Kraus Date: May 12, 1942 I would be very grateful if you could interview Miss Schwickert phenever you happen to be in Chicago the next time. I believe that she is a person of very good qualifications, but of a kind which are not too acceptable in this country; yet I believe that she should be placeable, unless there is some serious personality difficulty. P.S. is a woman in her fifties, trained as a vocational teacher with emphasis on home economics and group work. She has been the principal of a large vocational school for girls in Nuremberg and she has been active in many committees interested in workers' education, consumers education and other forms of adult education in pre- Hitler Germany. She is a liberal Catholic who has been active in the German Labor Movement. I would think that Marie Juchacz knows her personally and may be able to tell you more about her. Miss Schwickert came to this country five years ago, but unfortunately on a student visa. She spent most of her time at the University of Chicago where she is doing some work in home economics and sociology, but probably very much part- time and without much concentration. I have never met her personally, but according to her general training and experience she should be right for institutional work, YWCA work( especially as resident secretary or industrial secretary). She could also be in charge of cooperative student houses, campus cafeterias. Perhaps she could also teach vocational courses in a junior college. I believe that Pauline Schwickert is in great need and that she has not had the right vocational advice, and really wasted a good deal of time. When you write her, please indi cate that I have suggested your indicate seeing her. Thanks very much for helping on this case.

Formerly( before 1933) I was an official of the republican Government of Prussia and member of parliament( Reichstag). I went from Germany to the Saarterritory and there I stayed during the plebiscite campaign as a leader of organisation of this campaign against Hitler. After the plebiscite on the 15th of January 1935 I fled to France ( Mulhouse in Alsace- Lorrain). There I was founder and editor of a weekly news paper against Nazism" Freiheit Korrespondenz" Freedom correspondence) which had a branch in Luxemburg, therfore th I often visited Luxemburg. I was also there on the 10' of May 1940 as Hitler broke into Holland, Belgium and Luxemburg. On the of November 1936 Hitler took away my German nationality, becaus I was his enemy. On the 14th of June 1940, the day on which German troops occupied Paris, few friends of mine andd myself fled from Mulhouse to the south border of France and later to the west border( Bas Pyrenées). In the end of September 1940 the U.S.Consul Generale at Marseille gave us visas to this country but I could not go because the French Government refused me the exit- visa. Later I understood the reason: the French Government had a list given by the Gestapo of 150 to 200 Nazieenemies who must be prevented from leaving France. Therefore I was only able to leave France many months later( the 31 of March 1941) only with the aid of French friends. I went from Marseille to Martinique and after four weeks in camp there I came to New York. I arrived in this country th 29th of May 1941 on the steamer " Duc d'aumal( French Line). Form AR- AE- 21 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WASHINGTON, D. C. NOTICE TO ALIENS OF ENEMY NATIONALITIES CERTIFICATES OF IDENTIFICATION All natives, citizens, denizens or subjects of any foreign nation or government with which war has been declared, who are 14 years of age and older, and who are within the United States and who have not fully acquired United States citizenship, are required to apply at specified post offices for a Certificate of Identification. Such Certificates are to contain the alien's photograph and must thereafter be carried by the person to whom issued. Those who do not comply with these requirements are subject to severe penalties. The Certificate of Identification will be a protection to you and will facilitate matters in connection with travel and other permits, passes, and exemptions which may, from time to time, be granted to individual persons in accordance with rules and regulations. The Certificate will serve different purposes than the Alien Registration Receipt Card heretofore issued to you. In filing the Application for Certificate of Identification, you are merely giving current information concerning yourself and are complying with necessary war- time requirements of the United States Government. You are also giving evidence of your peaceful disposition and of your desire to cooperate and to conform to the laws of the United States. These are the steps required of you: ( 1) Look up your Alien Registration Receipt Card at once. You must have it, to avoid delay, when you apply for a Certificate of Identification. If you do not have it, write immediately to Alien Registration Division, Washington, D. C., stating( a) whether you lost it or never had one, and ( b) your nationality and present address and where you registered- whether in the United States or outside the United States at a Consular Office, or as a seaman. ( 2) Study the back of this notice. It shows the information you must have in order to file your application. Write out, or have someone write for you, the names, dates, places, or facts you will need. ( 3) Obtain three unmounted photographs of yourself, with light background, 2 by 2 inches in size, on thin paper. These photographs must be taken not more than 30 days prior to presenting your application, and must clearly show a front view of the face without hat. Take the photographs with you when you go to the post office to make application for your Certificate of Identification. ( 4) During such period as will be publicized in the press and on the radio, go to the first- or second- class or county- seat post office nearest your place of residence, taking with you the items mentioned in( 1),( 2), and( 3). Be sure to go to the post office even if you do not have your Alien Registration Receipt Card. You may take a member of your family or a friend with you. If you cannot write, take someone with you who writes plainly. If you cannot get such a person, there will be clerks at the post office to help you with your application. But you must have the required information. You will be given application forms to fill out at the post office. ( 5) Your Certificate of Identification must be delivered to you personally at your residence address unless different instructions are given at the post office. Cooperate in every way possible with the post- office carrier to facilitate delivery and acceptance. These requirements should involve no expense to you except for the photographs. It is not necessary to pay any person or organization to assist you. The Government, through its post offices, will assist you as much as possible. Complete instructions and official regulations may be examined at the post office where you file your application. Act early to file your Application for a Certificate of Identification. Then be sure to obtain your Certificate of Identification. EARL G. HARRISON, Special Assistant to the Attorney General.
