APPENDIX 5 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS EXPLANATORY NOTE Statements showing appropriations, receipts, expenditures and other financial data for a series of years constitute the most effective single means of exhibiting the growth and development of a service. Due to the fact that Congress has adopted no uniform plan of appropriation for the several services and that the latter employ no uniform plan in respect to the recording and reporting of their receipts and expenditures, it is impossible to present data of this character according to any standard scheme of presentation. In the case of some services the administrative reports contain tables showing financial conditions and operations of the service in considerable detail; in other financial data are almost wholly lacking. Careful study has in all cases been made of such data as are available, and the effort has been made to present the results in such a form as will exhibit the financial operations of the services in the most effective way that circumstances permit. The Bureau of Immigration collects various fees and head taxes. The total receipts from these sources for the period 1904-1923, inclusive, are as follows: APPROPRIATIONS AND EXPENDITURES, FISCAL YEARS 14 APPROPRIATIONS ONLY FOR FISCAL YEAR 1924 Expenses, Regulation of Immigration Immigration Stations Immigration Stations (with. out year)* Expenses of interned aliens Enforcement of laws against 11 Does not include $25,000 transferred to 1919-1920 account.
