`
`Sir:
`
`This is responsive to the Office Action with the
`
`mailing date of December 30, 1981.
`
`In the Application:
`
`
`
`
`‘No claim is made to exclusive

`Add the following: --
`use of the term "Travelers Cheque" apart from the mark as

`
` REMARKS
`
`The Examiner has cited as a section 2(d) reference
`
`Registration No. 867,698.
`
`The Examiner has noted, however,
`
`Applicant's claim of ownership of that registration as well
`
`as Registration No. 864,372.
`
`Please note that Applicant is in fact the record
`
`I hereby certify that this paper is being
`deposited with the U.S. Postal Service as

`
`owner of both registrations as per the enclosed copy of the
`
`Certificate of Change of Name, recorded at Reel 0390, Frames
`
`058, 059 and 060.
`
`In this regard, please note Applicant's
`
`Notice of Change of Name filed October 22, 1981 requesting
`
`that registration of the subject mark issue in the name of
`
`MasterCard International Incorporated.
`
`The Examiner has stated that the record specimens
`
`are "in the nature" of a photocopy and not regarded as evi-
`
`dence of actual service mark use. Local counsel for applicant
`
`has examined the specimens and reported that they are,
`
`in
`
`fact, actual specimens of traveler's checks. This exami-
`
`nation took place on or about June 22,
`
`l982 and is consistent
`
`with Applicant's own file which indicates that actual checks
`
`were used.
`
`The Examiner is requested to review the specimens
`
`again to confirm this point.
`
`Finally,
`
`the Examiner has requested that Applicant
`
`amend the description of services to read "Issuance of
`
`travelers checks" and to delete "travelers cheque services".
`
`By way of response, Applicant should explain that it does
`
`not directly issue travelers checks.
`
`Issuance is specifically
`
`done by member banks. Applicant in fact processes the checks,
`
`services lost check claims, processes check cashing, etc.
`
`In general, Applicant administers the travelers check program.
`
`Accordingly, Applicant has described its service in what
`
`it considers to be the most apt language.
`
`In View of the foregoing, Applicant respectfully
`
`submits that the subject application is in order and requests
`
`that the mark be passed to publication.
