I believe the gentleman from Maine made no argument as to the amendment not being germane. but. I wish to call the attention of the Chair to his own decision in a similar case. not as to a bill identical with this. but the same bill. with the exception of three sections. was brought into the House by a gentleman from Virginia as a substitute for the one offered by the present Speaker of the House. and the Chair ruled that it was out of order. He gave this reason : it was out of order because there was a naturalization clause in it. That has been stricken out together with other clauses that do not look strictly to retrenchment.
