Mr. Chairman. it was the view of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization that the subject matter of this legislation should have been handled by that committee. but I do not think that that committee wants to raise any particular question on that point. It is my notion. now the legislation is before us. we try. if possible. to amend this legislation to the satisfaction of the House. If the committee desires to send it back to the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. we will give it careful study and try to bring in a bill that will be satisfactory. However. we are also willing to go along here and offer some amendments. Let me state the purposes of the bill. It was intended to bring in a measure that would give to the present soldiers and sailors the same right of naturalization given to those during the World War. There have been some additions to it. Attention has been called to that.
