Then we went to Switzerland. and my father spoke with the American consul there and was refused. They said. "You are Polish. The quota is full for years and you cannot enter the United States." So we went on. We went to several other countriesHolland and Luxembourg and finally we went to England. My father felt that he was still not far enough away from Hitlers wrath that he foresaw with considerable clarity. Finally in England we found a consul who allowed us to immigrate to the United States under the German quota. We arrived December 23. 1935. So this treaty indeed has some very special meaning to me.
