I believe. against receiving these two Territories into the United States as States. While I was listening to the debate before the House pending the passage of the Alaskan and Hawaiian statehood bills this thought occurred to me. "If I were a Communist what would I do to advance the cause?" After pondering over this question the thought occurred to me "why. I would fill these Territories with Communists just prior to the time they were admitted as States and then these Communists would become naturalized citizens of the United States by virtue of the Territories being admitted to the Union as States." In passing it might be well to remember that one may become a naturalized citizen of the United States in one of four ways: First. by birth. secondly. by being a minor at the time the father becomes a naturalized citizen. thirdly. by becoming naturalized according to statutory procedure. and fourthly. by being an inhabitant of a Territory of the United States at the time that Territory is admitted Into the Union as a State of the United States. Being a longtime resident of Omaha. Nebr.. and having known one of the great Nebraska lawyers. if not the greatest.
