Ohio Aliens Urged to File Annual Address Report
The United States Immigration and Naturalization Service reminds all Ohio aliens they have two weeks to file their annual address report. District Director J M Lehman said forms are available at local offices and post offices. Non-citizens must report each January under the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952, with exceptions for diplomats, certain international organization representatives, and temporary agricultural workers. A willful violation may bring fines, jail, or deportation. In Ohio 53 000 aliens filed during the first two weeks of January, below 1957 levels.
