Indeed. I think the gentleman from Wisconsin rather confuses the bill by hils amendment. so far as I understand his amnenduent andthe purpose of it. He fears that unless tle amendment is agreed to some preference will be given to the allen enemy over. the other alien who Is not an enemy. both seeking naturalization. I cll his attention and yours to the first three or four lines of tills section 2171. which I think settle conclusively that question and show that the amendment of the gentleman from Wiscoinsin is inere surplusage. It says " no enemy who is a native citizen or a subject or a denizen of ..ny country. State. or sovereignty with which the United States is at war at the tine of his application shall be then admitted to become acitizen of the United States."- Therefore the trouble ie.seus is anticipated and Is covered by this bill. No alien enemy at a time of war can be considered for naturalization under this paragraph. Therefore there Is no necessity for his aimendment. The alien enemy is wiped out at the very outset.
