I believe the gentleman understands what this bill purports to do. It purports to give citizenship to people who have been here for 20. 30. and 40 years or more and who have been unable to become American citizens because of their inability to comply with the educational requirements of our naturalization law. This is a humane piece of legislation. and in view of the laws which are being passed by Congress barring aliens from employment on Government work and depriving them of W. P. A. positions. I think our Government owes it to these people .who have been in this country a great number of years to admit them to citizenship.
