An Alien Property Custodian was an office within the Government of the United States during World War I and again during World War II , serving as a Custodian of Enemy Property to property that belonged to US enemies. World War I President Woodrow Wilson appointed A. Mitchell Palmer , a political ally and former Congressman, Alien Property Custodian in October 1917.

Late in 1918, Palmer reported he was managing almost 30,000 trusts with assets worth half a billion dollars. He estimated that another 9,000 trusts worth 300,000,000 dollars awaited evaluation.
