If I could have had my way I would have had the record completely stricken out regarding boys and girls when they were released from those institutions. for juvenile delinquents. But. unfortunately. when confined for minor offenses the stigma once placed on them almost always remains. and those who rise above the mark. whether it be the "scarlet letter" or something else. have done so through strenuous effort. I assure you. This bill was given great consideration by the committee. It is not vicious. in my opinion. It is properly titled a naturalization act. because this young woman who committed these minor offenses when a school girl was enmeshed partly by the 1917 immigration act. and partly by the 1922 Cable Act. which act is a naturalization law.
