HC Deb 08 June 1939 vol 348 cc635-6W
Colonel Wedgwood

asked the Home Secretary whether he will reconsider his refusal of a visa for transitory residence in this country to Dr. Norbert Schick, Vienna, because documentary evidence regarding definite permission of immigration to the States was lacking, although photostats of three affidavits and the American consulate's confirmation of their receipt were attached to the application; and whether he is aware that quota numbers are not issued by the American consulate-general in Vienna?

Mr. Peake

A visa was authorised in this case on 2nd June.

Colonel Wedgwood

asked the Home Secretary whether he will issue a visa to Hans Trost, Leopoldsgasse 51, Vienna, 27, who is transmigrant to the United States of America, and has been guaranteed hospitality prior to re-emigration by Ernest Howard Smith, Grimshaw Hill, Henley-in-Arden, the documents relative to the application having gone forward on 4th May?
