This is in reply to GEORGE S. Robinson:


Brother George,

I think your references to the need for Grand Lodge documentation in
order to travel among foreign lodges was interesting.  Are you a
member of the Scottish Rite?  The reason I ask is because The Supreme
Council of The Scottish Rite (Northern Masonic Jurisdiction USA) now
will issue a Masonic Passport to all initiates soon after being made
a 32nd degree Mason.  It is intended to serve the very purpose the
paperwork you described does.  It is signed by the Mason himself as
well as the Concistry Commander and Secretary as well as the
signatures of the Sov. Grand Commander and Secretary and the seal of
the Supreme Grand Council.  It identifies the bearer as a 32nd Degree
Mason and requests that the receiving Scottish Rite Valley regard him
as such.  I carry mine in the glove compartment of my car in case I
am traveling and decide to use it.

I doubt this would help me in a blue lodge in New Zealand though (G).
