The Consul General at Jerusalem (Wadsworth) to the Secretary of State
[Received October 18—9:10 a.m.]
Department’s October 17, 6 p.m. Commissioner for Migration regrets that answer to Department’s query cannot properly be given in Jerusalem and suggests that our Embassy at London inquire directly of British Foreign Office.
Commissioner’s rights of prescription has not been exercised and no immigration schedules for semester begun October 1st have been issued. I gathered impression in recent conversations with British officials that whole question is being held in abeyance pending publication of the Commission’s report and declaration of British policy.
