Yes. There is no question about that. If the gentleman will examine the language in section 337 (a) (5) he will find that in the oath the disjunctive "or" is used. so that the oath provides. "to bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law. or to perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law. or to perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law." In other words. the naturalized alien is subject to the same requirements as the nativeborn citizen is under the Selective Service Act. In this the language differs from that of the Senate bill. where the conjunctive "and" is used instead of "or."
