Now. Mr. Speaker. every member knows that the persons going abroad from "this country who require these passports are naturalized citizens of the United States who return to the places of their birth in Europe either on business or for pleasure. They require some certificate of their citizenship. Every member who hears me I have no doubt has more than once gone to the Department of State to obtain for some naturalized citizen who lives in his district a passport to be used abroad as evidence of citizenship. By this bill we have added $14.000 in the way of salaries to the appropriations for the State Department. We have increased the salaries in that Department beyond what they were during the war.
