Excerpt from Annual Report of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, Washington, D. C: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1954 This is a report of the activities of the Immigration and Naturalization Service for the fiscal year 1954. The work of the Service falls naturally into three major categories aliens who seek to enter the United States aliens who are already here and aliens who are becoming citizens through naturalization. In the first category were 60 million aliens seeking admission. Among these were 58 million border crossers from foreign contiguous territory, who were counted on each entry; alien crewmen; visitors, students, treaty traders, and govern ment officials. Sparked by Special legislation, such as the War Brides Act and the Displaced Persons Act, immigration has exceeded in four of the past five years; yet with out these augmenting influences, normal immigration in the year ended June 30, 1954, was immigrants admitted for permanent residence. Under the authorized quota of (partially mortgaged by the requirements of the Displaced Persons Act) more than quota immigrants came to the United States. Nonquota immigration of immigrants was a third higher than last year. This result was due in part to the increase in husbands of citizens admitted, but in greater degree to the larger number of immigrants admitted from Western Hemisphere countries, particularly Mexico. Recruitment and importation of agricultural laborers from Mexico, begun as a war time measure a decade ago, was continued during the past year, and laborers were brought into this country through the joint efforts of this Service and the Department of Labor. Almost aliens failed to qualify for admission under the immigration laws. Many who were denied admission were turned back at land borders without formal hear ings. Three thousand three hundred thirteen were excluded after formal proceedings, in cluding 111 excluded on subversive grounds and 364 on criminal, immoral, or narcotic grounds. Possibly the biggest problems and most telling actions in the Service during the year occurred in the second category aliens already here. In this group are aliens here illegally who may be subversives or criminals, or laborers hard pressed by the economic situation in Mexico. In this group, too, are the aliens seeking authorizations of many kinds. The work is extremely varied. The Service is charged with the energetic enforce ment of laws relating to the apprehension and expulsion of aliens who, for any one of many reasons, are in the United States illegally. On the other hand, applications for issuance of visa petitions, for a change in immigration status, for lost identification cards, etc etc are received and acted upon in great numbers.
