Speaker. the resolution only requests the Secretary of War to take up negotiations so that when we return here in December we can promptly pass a law. let us hope. in time for the next draft that will compel these "slacker aliens" to enter the armies of the United States and bear their full share of the burdens of this war. A singular condition was disclosed by the various exemption boards throughout the country. who made examination into the facts. as to how many of these slacker foreigners are justly entitled to be exempted. That is. how many of them had been in the country long enough to become naturalized. if they had promptly applied to the courts for that purpose. and it has been disclosed that over 90 per cent have been here sufficient length of time. Therefore it is very apparent that these men are intentionally evading the duties of ciftizenship. and especially military service. I contend that no government is so impotent as to be required to permit this evil to be unchallenged and uncorrected.
