I believe that the bill ought to be so amended as to strike out. in line 5. the words " all male citizens or male persons who have declared their intention to become citizens." and insert in lieu thereof the words "all male aliens who are citizens or subjects of cobelligerent countries. if they are here." Then exempt alien enemies. exempt those of neutral countries and draft those that are here from cohlligerent countries. What has become of the treaties in the Senate? Echo answers. What? What has become of the alienslacker bill? Echo answers. What? I went before the Senate Committee on Immigration twice for the purpose of urging the passage of the alienslacker bill. The chairman. Senator HARwIex. and three other members of the committee were there at one of the meetings.
