MEMORANDUM FOR ROBERT K. CARR:
EXECUTIVE SECRETARY
COMMITTEE ON CIVIL RIGHTS
Attached is a copy of the Manifest of
Outward-Bound Passengers the Master of every
American ship is required to fill out before he
leaves port.
As you will notice on the back, the
instructions for recording answers make a di fference
between white Americans and Negroes. This is in
accordance with a Bureau of Immigration and
Naturalization regulation.
It occurs to me that your staff may want
to find out whether this is a purely administrative
decision, or whether it is an a statutory basis.
PHILLEO NASH
