Piero and Irma Sraffa are applicants for immigration to the US under the Italian quota; their British assets.

Originally enclosing documents relating to Piero and Irma Sraffa's proposed migration to the U.S.; Sraffa still interned in the Isle of Man, several people, particularly Keynes, working for his release, but his mother is 'beginning to be very sceptical about his being freed to stay in England'.

Has passed on the Sraffas' documents; suggests possible problems with their application for a US visa.

Informs Benton that registration forms have already been submitted for the Sraffas' visa application, and that Steyne has written to say they are listed amongst those applying for visas under the Italian quota.

Sent all the documents Irma Sraffa supplied him to his friend the American ambassador [Alan Steyne]; quotes from Steyne's response [197], which is not 'trop optimiste'; they must wait to hear from the Visa Section.

Encloses the new visa registration forms, duly completed. For personal reasons, which he has verbally explained to Mr Steyne [the Consul], would find it difficult to leave Britain at the moment; asks if his application could be kept 'on record' and the issuing of the visas delayed.
