It seems to me that the most dangerous part of this amendment is the fact that you have 2.000 naturalization courts in this country. Now I just want to call your attention to the language of the amendment of the gentleman from California: Such a formal. written renunciation of nationality or signing a document or form of the United States Government containing such statements or answers as will support a finding of a naturalization court. that such a person has. in fact. denationalized himself by exercising his inherent natural right to divest himself of his nationality. What that means is this. as I take it. that I can hale into court on my own motion. because this is a civil procedure. any person for any statement that he made in writing on a Government form. This would give me the right. for example. as a citizen. to haul him into any naturalization court of this country. and I might say there are 2.000 of them. and make him accountable in a civil prot. ceeding before that court. for any statement that he made in writing on a Government form or any answer to some questionnaire that the Government had made outand God knows there are millions of them around the country. It would have no semblance of a fornial proceeding. You could have as many o1 such proceedings as you have people who wanted to bring it.
