The Conference Report. to which I fully subscribe. was as follows: The Conference agreed to recommend to the Congress the repeal of Section 41 of the Act of March 2. 1917. as amended by Section 20 of the Act of June 25. 1948 (c. 646. 62 Stat. 989. 48 U.S.C. 863). This section of the statute has four separate parts. three of which are regarded as obsolete or fully supplied by other statutes and the fourth not only obsolete but also confusing and unnecessary. The provision with respect to the naturalization jurisdiction has been superseded by Section 310 of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1421) which expressly confers upon the district courts of the United States. including the Puerto Rico District Court. jurisdiction of naturalized persons as citizens of the United States. The payment of salaries of the Judges and officials and other expenses of the court are now made directly by the Director of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts pursuant to Section 604 of Title 28. United States Code.
