In. one moment. That .woman. -who has become an alien by .expatriation. goes to Europe. and while in Europe contracts some disease -or .incurs -some other disability which would bar her if she were .coming to this country as an original citizen of that country. as -one born -in that .country. When she comes here and pleads "I am ia nativeborn .citizen andtlerefore entitled to return." the answer to her is "Under the .decision in Mackenzie against Hare you have 4ost -your status as a native born and can not -come in as a -native born. Neither :can you come hadk .as -a .naturalized (person. and:you must :be barred from this country the same as though you were born in another country. :because you have .become -a .citizen of that country by your act of texpatriation. to wit. :the -act -of marrying -a .man who is not a -naturalized -or a native born citizen of this country." So that it seems to me now.. with the law so plainly before us. that the committee ought to adopt the language that is suggested -by adding the words "-other than the wife and other than the children under 18 years of age ofany nativeborn -or naturalized citizenof the United States."
