We study the magnetic properties of a superconductor in a crystal without $z \to -z$ symmetry, in particular how the lack of this symmetry exhibits itself. We show that, though the penetration depth itself shows no such effect, for suitable orientation of magnetic field, there is a magnetic field discontinuity at the interface which shows this absence of symmetry. The magnetic field profile of a vortex in the $x-y$ plane is shown to be identical to that of an ordinary anisotropic superconductor except for a shift in the $-z$ direction by ${\tilde \kappa} \lambda_x$ (see errata). For a vortex along $z$, there is an induced magnetization along the radial direction.
