In the figures which the Senator gave lie had reference to the presentation of petitions for naturalization. I read from his remarks as follows: This is testimony given before the Senate Committee on Appropriatlions about 10 (lays ago: " Whereas there were pending at this time last year 19.500 petitions-" Not applications. but petitionsin the supreme court and the district court In Kings County-" That is Brooklyntoday there are only 11.000-" They have gained 8.500 in that one county in lessf than one yearthat whereas there were pending in New York County-" Which is 2anhattan"in the Federal and supreme courts 21.000. today there are pending only 18.000-" They have gained 3.000 in one year. I understood that to have reference to petitions that were ready for action by the court. and I understood that the junior Senator from New York was referring. in his statement with reference to 100.000 people waiting. to the applications. and I wanted to know. if there was really iny conflict between the two Senators as to that. but I understand the senior Senator now to controvert the statement of the junior Senator.
