Would Protect All. r.
Treaty Rights
American Bar Association Bill In.
troduced-Measure Put Forward
To Raise Issue and Not to
Apply to Any Specific
Situation.

Washington, June "A proposal
to confer upon the federal govern.
ment power to name and enforce,
even as against states, treaty 'righte
which aliens in the United States
may be given was introduced today
by Senator Kellogg, Republican
Minnesota, in the form of q bill
framed by the judiciary committee
of the American Bar association.
Senator Kellogg said the measure
was put forward to raise the issue
and not to apply necessarily to any
specific situation.
Under the bill, the president would
be authorized, when lin his judgment
any statute Of state, or territory
contravenes treaty rights of aliens
to instruct the attorney general to
take up the defense Of ciyil or Grim.
inal prosecutions brought by state
officials before state courts and to
secure their removal to federal courts
for trial. .~.
The federal courts ; would take
jurisdiction when any acts had been
committed against aliens which
would constitute crimes under. state
laws and penalties similar, to those
provided in the state statutes would
be- imposed IN case of acts, against
American citizens. United States
marshals and if necessary army or
navy forces, would be available to
enforce decisions. - - s.. ~,
Under present conditions there is
no law authorizing Intervention by
the federal government for the pro-
lection Of aliens in state proceedings
Senator Kellogg said. The Bar as
sociation bill, he added was intended
to make clear the rights and duties
of the federal government.
The bill referred to the foreign re-
lations committee of which Senator
Kellogg is a member. He said his
own opinions as to the advisability
Of its enactment would be withheld
to await the committees report.
