Here is a letter addressed to organizations of men who have filed their first papers. who have pending applications of citizenship. Those applications for citizenship must be examined and passed upon by the Bureau of Naturalization. and those men are told to walk up to the captains office and support the Democratic Party as part of a parade at President Wilsons inaugural. or possibly they will not be permitted to become American citizens. Foreigners coming here. unacquainted to a large extent with the custons of the country and their rights in America. are disposed to give undue emphasis to the requests or demands of public officials with whom they come in contact. I Say it Is a disgrace to the office and a disgrace to American citizenship that the men in charge of the Bureau of Naturalization would tell. pracically command. men who have applications for citizenship now pending to be passed upon by the Bureau of Naturalization. that they must organize and come to Washington to march in an inaugural parade.
