...Ralph Beaver Strassburger of Pennsylvania dropped in to see the President and ask whether Countess Karolyi might not come to visit him at Norristown (see CABINET...
That authority was exercised recently in refusing a visa to Shapurji Saklatvala, Communist member of the British Parliament. Last year it was exercised in a different manner: Countess Catherine Karolyi, wife of the onetime President of the Republic of Hungary, had been admitted to the U. S.

And I will not give my consent to anything which does not serve the interest of reconstruction. The Government...
