Yes. in section 17. as it was originally reported. it was provided that the United States should. upon affidavit made by any credible person. have the power to institute proceedings. either in the court out of which the certificate might have issued. or in any court having jurisdiction to naturalize aliens in the judicial district in which the naturalized citizen may reside. That portion has been changed so that it reads: That It shall be the duty of the United States district attorneys In the respective districts. upon an affidavit showing good cause therefor. made by any credible person. to institute proceedings In any court having Jurlsdiction to naturalize aliens. in the judicial district in whch the naturalized citizen may reside. and takes away the right to institute it in the court out of which the certificate of citizenship may have been Issued. unless the alien happens to reside within the jurisdiction of that court. In other words. the proceedings must be brought in a court having power to issue certificates of naturalization In the district In which the person resides whose certificate is sought to be canceled.
