States. Several such cases are already
before the courts. For instance. there
is an American from Detroit who served
in the British army. He came back TO
this country on the promise of employ
ment. and was arrested under the alien
contract law. on the ground that his citi-
zenship was forfeit. His case is being
tried, and is attracting especial atten-
ton on account Of the precedent it will
establish.
Taken in round numbers small army
of Americans have enlisted under vari-
Gus warning banners. But compared
with our whole population. especially our
total population of alien birth, the num-
Der of these fighting Americans is suri
prisingly small. Its smallness is a strik
ing demonstration of the rapidity with
which our immigrants become genuine
citizens in heart as well as in name.

straint is off and the House in sort OF
unrestricted manner can get down 10
shirt sleeves and amend the bill be-
fore it, which has just come from com
mittee. Five minutes on one side or the
proposition and then five minutes on
the other is allowed. However. long
ago some clever chap discovered that
he could move to strike out the last
word and get himself five minutes to
talk. The timekeeper at the Speakers
desk nudges the chairman OF the COM
mittee of the whole House promptly az
and up jumps a member who either
moves to strike out the last two
words or solemnly opposes the striking
out of any words at all. just so as to
get himself five minutes to talk.
The chairman makes every one con-

of specialized rules on what is and
what is not germane have sprung up.
Frequently long debates ensue on this
one technical point.
In the committee of the whole no
bills can be introduced and no record
votes are taken. This latter practice
causes men to endeavor to
vote against an amendment in COM
mittee of the whole. but vote for it
after the committee has arisen simply
because of the fact that their votes
may then be recorded if any one should
ask for roll call.

of in the case of important
measures.

There is a treaty between Germany
