The Naturalization Bureau does not have to do that particular work. It .is:supposed ito be done by the nImmigration Service. Itis separate.and distinct from the Naturalization Bureau. The haturalization -work is held back. im:peded. and .retarded by the failure of the inspectors.and others in the Immigration Service at Ellis Island doing .this work. Thatwork at Ellis Island is never done. except whenthey have leisure time to do it. We all know who have given -any atten.tion to the proposition that the Immigration -Servicehas its owa -method of handling its own business and the Naturalization Bureau has its own method. And if -it is .necessary to -continue this certificateofarrival :prOposition. :the .Naturalization !Bureau -should have their own inspectorsinordertodo it. It is.uselessto constantly.cry that .aliens do not desire -to. become citizens. when -instead ofproviding :suflicient machinery for that purpose you are placing cogs in thewheel. It is about.time .that the country learned the facts and placed the responsibility where it properly belongs.
