Canada Unlikely 10 Allow

BY the Asseciated Press

OTTAWA. Ontario. Jan. 12-Can-
ada is unlikely to grant papers to
facilitate return of Otto StrasSer,
political refugee, to Germany, Of
ficial sources said yesterday.
Strasser, who has been living on
a farm in Nova Scotia. says he
wants to go back to Germany to
help rally German Democrats into
league for revival similar to that
Of Gen. Charles de Gaulle in France
: Strasser, who claims he broke
with Hitler after Strasser's brother
was killed in a Nazi Party purge in
1884. needs a document of identifi-
cation from Canada for travel.
A spokesman for the Department
Of External Affairs said it is most
unlikely" such a document will be
granted to Strasser. He said the de-
partment has been in consultation
on the matter with Britain, France
and the United States.

and taught mannerisms essential to
a female impersonator, according to
Mr.. Kinnison.
Then, after leaving his male at

railroad station. But, Mr.. Kinnison
declared in filing the impersonation
charge, Holsinger also left behind
worthless check for S112.79.
Holsinger arrived in the District
yesterday by train, escorted by two
United States Marshals, and was
jailed in default of $1,000 bond.
The United States attorneys
Office here reported the grand jury
probably will consider today the
charges that Holsinger defrauded
three persons, one Washingtonian,
