1 item

Bolleystrasse 36, Zürich. - Is applying for Swiss naturalisation, in order to get a job after he finishes his studies; it is 'practically impossible for a man with a Nansen passport to find some work nowadays'. Has found a way to do this which his parents can afford, but Swiss law says only those who possess at least two thousand Swiss francs can be naturalised, which they cannot get together. Asks if Trevelyan could lend him this sum until the formalities are over, which he hopes will be by July 1935. Knows how much Trevelyan has already done for him and his family and is much embarrassed to ask again for help, but does not see any other way.
