Poland’s immigration quota to the United States for the fiscal year 1925-1926 has been exhausted, according to an announcement by the American Consul General here.
The Consulate today stopped issuing visas for this year.
During the year 5,892 visas were issued, of which 3,000 were given to the first category immigrants and the rest to those prospective immigrants who held numbers issued by the consulate prior to the date when the quota law went into effect.
