Yoke Lon “May” PHANG
1934 from Tientsin, China
May applied to visit America for three months on her way to Jamaica. As evidence of her “non-immigrant status,” she provided references that vouched for her status. Coupled with a roundtrip ticket and $1,000 in cash, she was verified as a “responsible citizen of Tientsin” and allowed to visit.
