VIEWED SERIOUSLY
THE ARREST OF CAPTAIN KENDRICK BRITISH REPRESENTATIONS IN BERLIN. FULL INQUIRY PROMISED BY GERMANY. By Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. (Recd This Day, 9.10 a.m.) LONDON, August 19. The Government has instructed the British Ambassador at Berlin, Sir Nevile Henderson, to inform Germany that Britain views seriously the arrest of Captain Kendrick and expects a full and speedy explanation. Britain has also asked for particulars of the charge and the German Foreign Ministry has promised a full inquiry. It is hoped that the London representations will lead to a release. Reports from Vienna state that all requests to see Captain Kendrick have been refused, even those of his wife and colleagues. The Gestapo has referred the case to Berlin headquarters. The question arises whether Captain Kendrick can claim diplomatic status. Captain Thomas Kendrick, British passport control officer at Vienna, was arrested by the Gestapo (Nazi secret police) as he entered • the old Reich on his way to' England on furlough.
