The fiscal year estimates for 1962 and 1963 follow the usual up and down pattern caused by heavy
introductions during the first session of every Congress of bills not reached for consideration during
the past Congress. Special emphasis has been placed upon keeping the Judiciary Committees apprised as
to the current immigration status of pending private bill cases and reporting, as they occur, develop-
ments which might materially affect the Committee's consideration of these bills. Increasing Service
activity in this regard is reflected in the large number of supplemental reports.

Program Outlook

The Government has embarked on a program to encourage tourists to visit the United States. It is
expected that there will be a substantial increase in the number of temporary visitors arriving here.
There is certain to be a concurrent rise in the number of aliens violating their status, resulting in an
increase in the number of deportations and related actions in the Detention and Deportation activity.

The increasing emphasis on investigative search work under the investigation activity, coupled with
the continued rigid enforcement measures relating to alien crewmen, will add to overseas depor-

tations. From a work standpoint, the overseas nationalities present the greatest problem. The need
for custodial status throughout the period from apprehension to deportation, the difficulty in obtaining
documentation, complexities of arranging transportation, and the increased cost of all these are factors
in the situation. The following table shows for recent years the analysis of formal deportations by
principal area of destination:

Unexecuted Final Orders of Deportation. The Service has continued efforts to reduce the number

of active case unexecuted orders. The total number of such cases is substantially lower than at the
end of 1958, but has risen slightly as compared with 1959 and 1960, despite efforts to keep unexecuted
orders of deportation at as low a figure as possible. The slight increase is due to two factors -
the Cuban situation and a large number of cases in court litigation. Procedures in handling Cuban cases
changed with developments in Cuba. While the Service no longer places non-subversive and non-criminal
Cubans under deportation proceedings, there were a number already under orders of deportation in whose
cases deportation was stayed. As there is a continuing order of deportation in these cases, they con-
tinue to be carried on Service records as unexecuted orders. A breakdown showing the reasons why
deportation has not been effected is reflected in the following tabulation:
