I talked about it to the officials in Europe when I was over there last year. They pointed to a good deal of hardship that is involved because of the rather. restrictive provision of the existing law. Section 8 related to adopted children. and provides for their more expeditious naturalization. so that no prior residence would be required. To be sure. they must be identified with people who are over there for an American institution or corporation. or an international organization recognized by us. or on some other basis which gives some justification for the action. Section 9 relates to orphans under the Refugee Act. It would add 5.000 to the number and increase the age from 10 to 14. Section 10 relates to illegitimate children.
