That is not the spirit of it at all. It is not the purpose. and it can not have that result. Wheihever all alien comes to this country and enters our industries the presumption is. that lie conies here to form a part of our population. whether he intends ever to become naturalized and become in a legal sense a citizen or not. and. if so. it seems to me he owes the same obligation to the country which extends to him protection and of whose opportunities he has taken the fullest advantagelie has the same duty that the man who was born upon the soil has. But this bill does not even go so far as to include all such aliens. It aims only to include those who owe a double duty to get into the war and to defend the rights not only of this country but of the country from which he came and to which he owed allegiance.
