There is als6 the somewhat troublesome question of double citizenship. Some countries have no naturalization treaties with the United States and when their subjects are naturalized in this country. under our laws they are American eitizens. but under the law of their own country they are still citizens or subjects of that country. Now. when we authorize an agent to come over here and enlist those subjects. why not at least put language into the bill forbidding them to accept any that are our citizens under our law. I think the principle underlying the bill is a valuable one. It is certainly wise for us to make its intent as plain as we can.
