Registration of aliens will be
done here at the armory, it was
announced today by Postmaster
Frank DeSouza. A staff of
clerks, sujwrvised by the post
master, will do the registering.
The nation-wide registering of
aliens will begin August 27 and
tr will continue through Decem
ber 26, the work being done
through all first and second
class postoffices. Registration
was made compulsory by the
congressional act that requires
all non-citizens 14 years or older
to be registered and finger
printed. Alien children under
14 are to be registered by their
parents or guardians.
In addition to the Medford
armory, the Ashland postoffice
will be used in registering aliens
of Jackson county. Estimates
of aliens in the county range
upward to 1,000.
Cooperation Atktd.
Postmaster DeSouza asked the
cooperation of aliens and the
public generally in the registra
tion process. He emphasized
that registration and fingerprint
ing carries no stigma. The law,
he pointed out, provides that ail
records be kept secret and con
. fidential. The records, he add
ed, will be available only to
persons approved by the attorney-general.
As an aid to non-citizens, the
government will distribute spec
imen forms listing the questions
to be asked at registration time.
These forms will be available
prior to the registration period
at the postoffice here and in
Ashland. To make the regis
tration easier, aliens are asked
to fill out sample forms and
take them to the armory here
or the postoffice in Ashland
where they will be registered.
Penalty for Failure.
Congress passed the alien
registration act as part of the
national defense program so
that the government might de
termine exactly how manv
aliens there are in this country,
who they are and where they
j are. Penalties are provided for
failure to register.
When necessary, postal em
ployes will go to the homes of
aged and infirm aliens unable
to go to the place of registra
tion. Every registered alien will
receive a receipt card to serve
as evidence of his registration.
After registration, the aliens
must report changes of resi
dence within five days of the
change.
It is expected, that in the en
tire nation more than 3.500,000
aliens will be registered.
