Typed note to +McQuaid from James Ardle MacMahon informing him that Miss Timmey, Dept. of External Affairs, telephoned to say that two girls under 14 applied for passports to enter religion in the U.S. and France. Under statute 113 of the Plenary Council of Maynooth religious superiors are forbidden to take boys and girls out of Ireland to enter religion without having consulted the Bishop. Miss Tinney said she would not issue any passport.
