2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. S- AND B-C · Calvillo v. Robinson“* * * `by fraud and misrepresentation in that it appears that, in his application, [he] * * * concealed the fact that he had been arrested in England in 1940 and imprisoned there until December 1942, and falsely stated that he was at sea during the period he actually was in prison in England.' The misrepresentation and concealment were material. Had he disclosed those facts they would have been enough to justify the refusal of a visa.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. Calvillo v. Robinson“According to her own admissions, the appellee falsely represented herself as single and gave her maiden name, Elsa Smith Walcott, so that the Costa Rican Consul in Jamaica would issue her a Costa Rican passport, which he would not have issued had he known of her marriage to a British subject, since by such marriage she also became a British subject.”
