Job Corps Facts The Job Corps is a key part in For Aliens Report Addresses Joe D. Ixtwrie, officer in charge of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, stated that the annual alien address report program usually causes a sharp rise in the number of applications for naturalization. The law requires all aliens in the United States, with few exceptions. to report their addresses each January. Throughout the United States, almost thirty per cent more applications for naturalization are received during the months of January, February and March than are received during other months. Mr. Lowrie attributes this sudden rise to the Alien Address Report Program. Aliens not required to make this report are diplomats, those accredited to certain international organizations and those who have entered temporarily as agricultural laborers. Forms for making the reports will be available to aliens at all post offices and offices of the Immigration and Naturalization Service during the month of January. Mr. Lowrie indicated that aliens desiring information concerning naturalization or similar matters should obtain the forms at an office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service where personnel trained in these fields will be available to answer Oath Monday . . 30-da- an ; the nation's s of Young people from 21 are who through largely unemployed because they lack education and job skills to move ahead will be placed in Job Corps Centers where they can develop skills and is to enable young.
