At the present time there is a good deal of turmoil in the various nations of the earth. There are certain places where one side gets into power today and another side tomorrow. The first side then takes to the woods. and they would all be political refugees. These seasons of turmoil reappear frequently. and this provision would send a flood tide to America. If you write into this law the terms of the proposed amendment. you absolutely destroy the proposed measure in so far as political refugees are concerned. That would admit any anarchist or holshevist. any man wvho fights the country in which he lives or its form of government. The present time. when we are trying to preserve Anierican institutions.
