convention. A result IN substantial ac-
cord with the advisory suggestions
contained In the joint resolution Of
March 8, 1883, has been agreed upon.
and viii. I hope, be submitted
70 the Senate for ratification.
Under Sect 1863 Of the Revised
Statutes. bonds held in trust BY the
United States, and the annual interest
accruing thereon, when not otherwise
required by treaty, are to be invested
in stocks Of the United States bearing
rate of interest not less than per
cent. There being now no procurable
stocks paying so high rate of interest,
the letter Of the statute is at present
inapplicable, but its spirit is subserved
by continuing to make investments Of
this nature in current stocks bearing
the highest interest now paid.
The statute, however, makes no pro-
vision for the disposal Of such accre-
tions It being contrary to the gem
eral rule of this government TO allow
interest on claims, ] recommend the
repeal OF the provision in question and
the disposition under Q uniforn rule

CITIZENSHIP.
The inadequacy OF existing legislation
touching citizenship and naturalization
demands your consideration. While
recognizing the right of expatriation,
no statute provision exists providing
means for renouncing citizenship by
an American citizen, native born or
naturalized, nor for terminating and
vacating an improper acquisition OF
citizenship under fraudulent decree OF
naturalization.
| The privileges and franchise OF
American citizenship should be granted
with care and extended to those only
who intend in good faith to assume its
duties and responsibilities, when they
should be protected in privileges and
benefits. ltshould be withheld from
those who merely go through the forms
OF naturalization with the intent OF es-
Gaping the duties Of their original al
legiance, without taking upon them
selves those OF their new status, or
who may acquire the rights Of American
cit1zenship for no other than
a hostile purpose towards
their original government /
