§ 31. Sir G. Nabarroasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will issue a deportation order on Professor Ralph Herman Abraham, a visiting American professor at Warwick University, in view of the fact that he was fined £150 by Coventry magistrates for offences under the Dangerous Drugs Act, entailing scooping out a library volume, filling it with cannabis resin and posting it to Western Germany.
§ Mr. CallaghanWhen Mr. Abraham was convicted on 8th July, he told the court that he intended to return to the United States in about a month's time. He was not recommended for deportation by the court, and, if he honours his statement of intention I should not find it necessary to make a deportation order.
