Henry T. Chandler, President of the Vanadium Corporation of America, writes the American Consular Service of France to certify Max Bredig's (1902-1977) employment at the Corporation. Chandler does so in support of Bredig's affidavit for his sister and brother-in-law, Marianne Homburger (1903-1986), and Viktor Homburger (1888-1968), who are seeking visas to immigrate to the United States.
