I can not persuade myself that the objections urged by ny distinguished and learned friend from Massachusetts are really important. This bill has had the careful consideration of two committees. of the Senate and the House. and then of the joint committeeof both Houses. and has been gone over. I am told. ili a careful manner by time departmental officials in the Bureau of Naturalization. and has been approved all along tie line as a wise and. timuely measure. In point of fact there are. as the gentleman says. about 125.000 or 130.000 men now in Europe who are not citizens of the United States. but who ire helping to fight the battles of the United Stales. Ii most instances they aire citizens of countries with whichwe are engaged in war.
