Mr. Speaker. I do not know too mu~h .about immigration and naturalization matters and I realize .that the gentleman from Ohio has given a great deal of study to it. but to my knowledge no similar bill has been on the calendar for at least 10 or 12 years. This merely extends the date from July 1. 1920. to July 1. 1925. : as the time in which men and womenit includes men as .well as womenmay make application for citizenship with.out filing a declaration of intention. This may be done if they are otherwise qualified to be citizens of the United States. and if. during or prior to that time. because of misInformation. regarding their citizenship status. they regu.larly exercised the rights and performed the duties of citi.zens of the United States. in good faith.
