Pierre Emmanuel, French poet, was last year refused an entry visa to the United States to teach at Wellesley College.
At first State Department officials said that the visa had not been granted because Emmanuel had withdrawn is application, but later they admitted that the visa was denied because they felt Emmanuel was a Communist.
While Emmanuel worked with the Communists in the Resistance movement and now opposes much of America's foreign policy, he also has a record as an anti-Communist.
Since denying Emmanuel a visa last year, the State Department has evidently reversed its position. He has so far met no difficulty in getting a visa to appear at a poetry conference at the Harvard Summer School this summer.
