Mr. Speaker. the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization had before it the bill H. R. 6600. a bill which provided for issuance of documentary evidence of United States citizenship. Many Members of Congress and the public generally have been requesting action on this legislation and requesting immediate passage of the legislation. The committee of which I have the honor to be chairman immediately took under consideration H. R. 6600. which provided for some documentary evidence or certificate to persons who were born in the United States but who cannot by any means establish their citizenship. The committee unanimously reported this bill out. and after due debate on the floor on March 19. 1942. the bill was passed.
