January 18, 1950. 
The Honorable, 
The Secretary of State, 
Washington 25, D.C. 
I beg to advise that Mr. Watson M. Perrygo, of the 
staff of the United States National Museum, is to 
accompany me as assistant to Panama, leaving about the 
first of February, on an official trip for the Smithsonian 
Institution. May I ask, therefore, that Mr. Perrygo’s 
special passport No. 5913 be validated for this travel. 
Mr. Perrygo is a permanent employee of the U. S. 
National Museum, under Civil Service. He has had full 
clearance on loyalty in accordance with present Civil 
Service regulations. I can certify for him in every way. 
Very truly yours, 
A. Wetmore, 
Secretary.
