I can not yield now. I will in a moment. Now. as to deportations. Some of these men of our allies ought to be deported. but deportation is not the same class as naturalization. It is limited. It is not very troublesome now to prevent people from coming in. It will be very troublesome to deport. inasmuch as it is pretty hard to get transportation and still harder to get passports. But for convenience. for courtesy. and for the present that must be left to the State Department. As to naturalization. we have the power and we ought to pass a bill that is broad. far broader than that introduced by the gentleman from Alabama . It is entirely within our power to allow no alien who says he is not a citizen to become a citizen.
