According to the Constitution. Congress has the right to determine questions of naturalization. of patents. and of copyright. Yet. according to the view here contested. the President and Senate. by a treaty. could on these important questions utterly destroy the legislative capacity of the house of Representatives. The Constitution gives Congress the control of the Army.
