Let me use the same language and apply the sentiment expressed conversely: Why should we change the power of the Congress from the large urban communities which need It most to those parts of the country which are populated by large numbers of native Americans who refuse and decline to exercise the duties of American citizenship? We do not exclude a single native American from the right of franchise. A foreigner must take three steps to exercise the right of franchisebecome naturalized. which involves a financial sacrifice. register. and vote. A native American without any financial sacrifice need merely register and vote. Every one of these native Americans has the right to become an enfranchised citizen of the United States.
