Even the President of the United States cannot restore lost nationality by Presidential pardon. It can only be restored by an act of Congress. Section 349 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (66 Stat. 267. 8 U. S. C. 1481) provides that a person who is a national of the United States by birth or naturalization may lose his nationality after conviction by a court of competent jurisdiction in 1 of 10 ways. The bill before us would amend that section to provide the following additional grounds for loss of nationality: First. Inciting or engaging in or conspiring to incite or engage in any rebellion against the United States or giving aid or comfort thereto.
