I promised to answer the gentleman. always clear in his questions be. fore. but I did not know how the time stood. and therefore I did not answer. and I shall answer it now. as I think It is Important. On page 2 of the bill. lines 15 to 17. is the following language: If at the termination of the marital status she Is a citizen of the United. States. she shall retain her citizenship regardless of her residence. Under the law as. it now exists If it were not for that the woman abroad would not retain her American citizenship under this bill. It is intended. irrespective of the place of residence upon the termination of that citizenship. she may have American citizenship before automatically. under the present bill. she returns and applies for naturalization.
