I have no disposition to discuss the matter further. The chairman of the committee correctly states my position. The State courts are not compelled to hear naturalization cases. but the Federal statute permits. them to do it. The fact that this provision would subject the clerks in the Sate courts to a Federal civilservice examination is my only reason for making the point of order. I think the existence of the evil spoken of by the chairman of the committee is fully borne out by the testimony before the committee. but I insist on the point of order for the reason just stated.
