Office memorandum *UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
To General Counsel
FROM Chief, I&SS
DATE: 18 September 1950
SUBJECT: Draft - Presidential Directive on Departure of Persons
from the United States
OGC HAS REVIEWED.
In connection with your request for comment, Draft - Presi-
dential Directive, this matter has been considered by the Chief
of the Alien Affairs Branch of this Staff and by other appropriate
officers and this Staff concurs in the proposed directive.
It has been observed by the Chief of the Alien Affairs Branch
that such Presidential Directive will not actually prohibit the
departure of American citizens or aliens who are in a permanent
resident status in the United States but it will have a deterring
effect on departures of such persons.
There are, of course, many cases of interest to this Agency
which relate to aliens in a temporary status in the United States.
Such aliens are not eligible for the receipt of re-entry permits
and of course the proposed Presidential Directive does not cover
such a class of aliens. In a war, however, proposed regulations
with reference to departure of aliens will cover all classes of
aliens and these proposed regulations, which have been under
consideration by the Interdepartmental Committee on Internal
Security, will at least have a deterring effect on the departure
of aliens who are in the United States in a temporary status.
