Mr. Chairman. I do not care to make any extended remarks or occupy any time in discussing this amendment or the bill now under consideration. As a general proposition I do not believe that very much fault need be found with our naturalization laws as they now exist. if they are properly enforced and if the courts perform their duties thereunder in accordance with the spirit and intent of the law. However. If this bill will. as some claim. serve to raise the standard of American citizenship. then I am in favor of its passage. If the proposed amendments will encourage foreigners who come here intending to remain to learn our language and become educated in it. then I am in favor of the amendment.
