When will that be done? In what committee? I have pending a resolution from the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. It is with the Rules Committee for action. It provides that the members of the House Committee on Immigration and of the similar committee of the Senate shall sit during the coming summer as a commission. The purpose would be to revise the entire naturalization code as well as to do other muchneeded work. There is no code in the statutes of the United States so badly in need of revision as that on naturalization. The work of revising it is the work of three months steady work. The misfortune of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization is that its members are members also of two or three other committees. all with important work. There are three members of the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization who are also members of the Committee on Insular Affairs. When both committees try to sit at the same time we all lose time. there is much overlapping. and legislation that is badly needed is not framed.
