It is quite the custom now to support every proposed act. from the local and trivial to the most important. with the statement that it is a war measure. For that reason I hesitate to use a phrase so niuch. abused. although this is in fact a real war measure. It is evident o1 its face that it is. Tile Department of State. in letters to Chairman BURNETT. of the Colmittee Oil Immigration and Naturalization. and to me. ask its passage as such. Letters approving it have also come from tile Department of Labor and the subordinate Bureau of Naturalization. The committee did not accept it because administrative officers inlorsed the central thought of tile bill. They did not. in fact. accept it as those officials wanted it.
