The Polish Zionist Organization has cabled the World Zionist Executive at Jerusalem complaining of difficulties imposed upon would-be Palestine tourists by the British consulate.
According to the letters, the consul demands in addition to the deposit of 1,800 zlotys (about $360) that the tourists sign a statement pledging they will not remain in Palestine longer than three months and that they will not apply for an extension of visas or for a permit to remain in Palestine permanently.
