Attorney General Brownell Announces New Immigration Policy

November 12, 1954
See Original Daily Bulletin From This Date

Attorney General Herbert Brownell announced today at mass naturalization ceremonies here the new pre-inspection policy under the immigration laws.

The new procedures, which call for inspection of aliens at their point of origin and reject the ineligibles there, will serve a two-fold purpose, according to Mr. Brownell: First, inadmissibility of any alien will be determined before arrival, and often before departure from abroad, materially reducing the hardship which comes with exclusion at a port of entry.. Second, the alien in possession of proper documents will be admitted with virtually no delay at the port of entry by the immigration authorities.
