For instance. I find on page 46 of the Senate hearings that Mr. Watson said : First and most Important is that in regard to naturalization certificate papers. WVe will require to enable us to Issue the necessary petitions and certificates during the balance of the year $4.200. That is one item for which it is absolutely essential provision shall be made if we are to continue to naturalize people until the end of the fiscal year. I have no doubt that we siall continue tie naturalization of aliens. anid we ought to make whatever provision is absolutely necessary for it. Then. on page 48 I find that Secretary Wilson came before the committee. and in the first part of his statement I find this: Senator SAooT. I understood the Secretary to say that he appeared here in behalf of his contingent fund. And Secretary Wilson said. at the bottom of the page: The contingent fund. however. that we are asking for is imperative. It is needed in order that we may get the material with which tile clerks that we have may be able to work. Then on page 49 he says: As has been stated by the chief clerk. it is essential that we should have a sufficient amount of money In the contingent fund to pay for the certificates of naturalization that will be needed during the balance of tile fiscal year. The current fiscal year lres been extraordinary in the number of certificates of naturalization that have been applied for. It is far in excess of any previous year. We must always depend upon the supplies of paper.
