Absolutely not. This bill could not.touch that. does not touch it. and relates only to allowing the court to hear the case of a man who has lived in the United States five years. who has filed his declaration of intention. and who from all the proof provided by the inspector of the Immigration Bureau. the two witnesses. the applicant himself and all neighbors. should be admitted to be an American citizen. If there is anything against hint he should not be admitted. so. clearly. the case presented by the distinguished gentleman from Pennsylvania. long a member of the Committee on Immigration. does not apply to the certificates already issued. because I want to call attention to the statute on that subject. whiclh now permits the Attorney Generals Office. in section 15. page 10. of the regulations. to proceed to cancel any certificate improperly issued or issued through fraud or Illegally procured.
