- Note from Seymour S. Cohen of Marine Biological Laboratory to LP RE: writes to LP in regard to the refusal of the government
to issue LP a passport. Is appalled that LP had to sign an affidavit that

passport after his signing of the affidavit. Hopes that LP can help in
remedying the unconstitutional activities of the Passport Division.
