believes the figures show: That many Immigrants come to the United States without any serious intention of becoming permanent residents and citizens. As soon as they can collect "nest eggs--in savings or social security and other benefitsthey go back home where their money will stretch further because of lower prices and living standards. That there is ample justification for a provision of the 1 CarranWalter Act which cancels the citizenship of naturalized Americans who return to their native lands and stay more than 3 years. Loss of citizenship does not cancel social security and other retirement benefits earned in this country. but it deprives them of some other rights and protections which go only to United States citizens. Chairman WALTER got most of his figures from the Treasury. which mails out the benefit checks every month to American consulates which. in turn. distribute them to recipients.
