It vas justifed by urgent necessity and it was justified by international law. If they had been captured on they other side. they couild have been executed. I urge the appropriation for this reason. because every dollar has come from the people naturalized. Not a single cent comes olit of te Treasury of the United States. Over $750.000 was received during the last fiscal year. and the total amount that we ask for all tile expenses. including office rent .ind including nine or ten thousand dollars for the blank paper on which thesa certificates are issued. is a total of $675.000. Now. I do not know how many Members of the Iouse have watehed the process of naturalization aetually going oin. I have watched it step by step in New York. One of my colleagues from Ohio was with me a week ago. and I tell you. gentlemen. that every dollar appropriatetl brings more than 100 per cent in ret hurns.
