It is the verbatim inquiry reports for those "Detained aliens". Why they were detained, where they were going and IF they got thru. It is Polish, Russian, Irish, Italian, Lithuanian, mail order brides, orphans and old people going to their children. Even read one report of a young wife and three children going to West Virginia--the question? Would the husband accept her?!
