The father of Abraham Stavsky, Polish Revisionist who is held in Palestine for the murder of Dr. Chaim Arlosoroff, Zionist labor leader and member of the political department of the Jewish Agency, is in Warsaw attempting to gain permission to enter Palestine, Der Moment, Yiddish daily, reported today.
The senior Stavsky liquidated his business in Brest-Litovsk, the paper reports, coming here with his possessions to obtain a middle-class immigration certificate. The British consul here declined to visa his passport, according to the paper. His refusal was allegedly due to the charges against Stavsky’s son.
