If my memory does hot serve me incorrectly. it originated with the State Department. They communicated to us in regard to it. saying that this trouble constantly arises. The citizens of Porto Rico and the citizens of the Philippines also. for I think it would have equal application to them. owe us permanent allegiance. and yet if they see fit to come here and reside in good faith and for all time they never can become naturalized. Their condition is worse than the condition of their fellowcitizens who. under the terms of the treaty of peace. elected to retain their allegiance to Spain.
