Speech #630174708

I was going to call the Senators attention to the fact that the class of paper to which he refers comes under the Bureau of Naturalization and not under the miscellaneous expenses of the departient. Another thing that I did not understand was the following statement in the estimates. under the heading " Salaries. Bureau of Naturalization" : For the purpose of carrying Into effect the provisions of the act approved June 29. 1906. as amended by tie act approved March 4. 1913 (37 Stat. L.. pt. 1. p. 796). establishing the Bureau of Naturalization and providing for a uniform rule for the naturalization of aliens throughout the United States. namelyThen it goes on to say: Commissioner of Naturalization * * * $2.500. Deputy Commissioner of Naturalization * * *. $1.750. And then there is an estimate for a number of clerks. There is nothing there to show the need for the purchase of paper. but I understood from the head of the department that that was included.
