Abstract
Description
Sending letter by Avra Warren; Warren going on inspection trip; some officers in Europe too lax in granting visitor's visas; once an alien is in U.S. on visitor's visa he cannot be thrown out if he has nowhere to go; cannot change immigration laws; a Foreign Service officer should follow regulations whatever his personal views may be; strength of present regime in Germany may not be as great as we are led to believe; Germany makes such a display of her power that it may be difficult for anyone on the scene to see it in perspective; basic reason behind present action against Jews is economic; U.S. almost unanimously behind government and against Germany.
