the name of the traveler or travelers and detailed information concerning the projected travel including itinerary, mode or modes of travel, points and duration of stopovers, and specific routes and carriers if transiting closed areas. Other than for large cities, place names should be identified by county and state.

Transit travel by railroad or commercial airlines through closed areas will be permitted when such travel is necessary to reach open areas or open cities in otherwise closed areas. Soviet citizens engaging in such transit travel are not to leave the immediate vicinity of any air or rail terminal located in a closed area or city except where necessary to effect air or rail connection for continuing the travel. The transit of closed areas by automobile or bus will not normally be permitted except by specified routes without intermediate stops between Washington, D. C., and New York, New York; Washington, D. C., and Baltimore, Maryland; New York, New York, and the Oyster Bay, New York area; Washington, D. C., and the open areas to the south and west. These routes are specified in enclosure No. 5. Applications for exceptional access to recreation and resort areas which fall in a closed area will be considered on the merits of each such application.

The foregoing regulations are comparable to those which the Soviet Union has imposed, presumably for reasons of security, on the movement of United States citizens in the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union should hereafter conclude that the international situation were such that security requirements enabled it to liberalize its regulations restricting the travel of United States citizens in the Soviet Union, this Government would in turn be disposed to reconsider in the same spirit its own security requirements.
