And this Is good. For this is the American way of life. We of the Immigration and Naturalization Service in the Department of Justice. recoganize and find in the federal court clerks. officers who. as part of our judiciary system. give unstintingly of themselves in joining our Service to assist aliens in the judicial acquisition of citizenship. Their help is indispensable and of inestimable worth. No person with reason can deny or even cast doubt that American citizenship Is a priceless possession. We as Americans have been endowed with this immeasurable treasure either by the accident of birth or have earned it as a matter of choice through court proceedings. Twentyfour years ago in ruling upon a case involving the revocation of naturalization. the highest Court in the land wrote: "It is safe to assert that nowhere in the world today is the right of citizenship of greater worth to an Individual than it Is In this country. It would be difficult to exaggerate its value and importance. By many It Is regarded as the highest hope of civilized men." This right. by judicial description. is and continues to be a priceless possession.
