tice and common sense should permit
married woman to act upon her own
wishes and qualifications for natural
ization rather than those of her hus-
band.
"a natural-born American must wait
81 years before she or he is permitted
to participate in the government OF
this country. A foreign-born man or
single woman who comes to this coun-
try and resides here continuously for
five years, if he qualities before the
courts, may become naturalized and
acquire the right of suffrage. But
foreign-born woman who comes to this
country one day automatically be-
comes an American citizen the next
If she marries an American citizen or
If her husband becomes naturalized.
With one days period of residence, MS
compared to the natural-born Ameri-
cans 81 years of residence, she ac-
quires the same rights, privileges, and
benefits in and to our government. She
is not required to be able to speak
the English language, to know of our
customs and laws, our Constilunvn,
and to be attached to the principles of
our government; she does not even
have to renounce allegiance to her
foreign ruler and take the oath of
allegiance to Uncle Sam.
"Citizenship in this country should
not depend on the marriage status,
but should be based upon loyalty to
our country and a knowledge of its
language and laws, as we'll as wish
or desire to become an American citl-
zen. On the other hand, under our
present law married alien woman
who may have resided in this country
for many years and who has learned
to love America, who knows our
language, our customs, our laws, can
not become an American citizen ex-
cept by the naturalization of her hus-
band. Why should her citizenship
depend upon the will of her husband?
1.-THE bill under consideration repeals
which provides ANY woman who is
now or who may hereafter be married
to citizen of the United States and
who might herself be lawfully natur-
allied shall be deemed citizen and
in its place provides that when an
alien woman marries an American, or
when her husband becomes naturalized
she does not automatically became an
American citizen, but if she also de-
sires to become an American citizen
she may do so by being naturalized
through shortened process.
"The present law permitting the
naturalization of foreign born deals
directly with the husband and father
and gives the wife and mother but
secondary consideration. The husband
is the one who is educated. He Is the
one who must learn to speak the
English language, to Enow our coun-
try, its Constitution, and laws. He
is the one who must be attached to
the principles of our nation. He only

renounces allegiance to his foreign
ruler, and in most cases he only ap-
pears in open court and declares on
oath that he will support and defend
the Constitution. The husband is the
one who must be fitted and pre-
pared for his part as an American
citizen. Even the children are sent to
public schools, but what of the wife?
The true process of naturalization
should include the education of the
mother of this immigrant family. The
mothers influence and guidance would
be lost to the family without the edu-
cation that naturalization proceedings
provide and require. My bill is in
tended to permit this wife and mother
to learn something about the country.
She is the one who should guide these
children and ought to have the same
privilege of an education as the father.
"Under the present law amy Amer
lean woman who marries foreigner
shall take the nationality of her hus-
band.' This bill repeals that provi-
sion of law in line with the Republican
and Democratic national platforms.
The Republican platform in part pro-
vides: An American woman resident
in the United States shall not lose her
citizenship by marriage to an alien
"And the Democratic platform deal
ing with this subject advocates: "Fed-
eral legislation which shall insure that
American women resident in the United
States, but married to aliens, shall re-
tain their American citizenship.
"In my opinion the rich American
woman who marries a title and lives
abroad should cease to have the priv
ileges and benefits of an American
citizen, and under my bill special pro-
vision Is made that if she resides con-
tinuously for two years in the country
of which her husband Is citizen or
subject, or resides continuously for
five years abroad, she Is presumed to
have ceased to be an American citizen
But there are many American girls
who marry foreign-born and who con-
tinue to reside in this country. Their
loyalty and fidelity is with the United
States. Since the nineteenth amend
ment grants equal suffrage to women,
so also should they have equal rights
with reference to citizenship. An
aIucElChH ClllZtil VIII alien
girl still retains his citizenship; so
also should the American girl who
marries the alien man. We should
not relinquish our rights to legislate
or withdraw our country's protection
from these natural-born American
women their personal and property
rights should be determined by our
laws and we should not by legisla.
tive action surrender this rig to any
foreign nation.
"The purpose of the bill is to place
citizenship on the highest plane pos
sible. 1t is privilege and not right.
Participation in our government and
the protection by our country should
not be determined in the case of mar
ried women solely by a marriage cere.

or granted to her without her full
knowledge, consent, or wish is not
confined to legislative proceedings or
resolutions in this country. In April,
1922, bill was introduced In the
French senate providing that the
French woman who marries an alien
retains her French citizenship unless
she makes formal declaration that she
prefers to take the nationality of her
husband. In England bill, which 50
wOmen's organizations of the British
Empire heartily indorsed, dealing with
independent citizenship of married
women has lately been brought before
the house of commons. 1t provides
for the restoration of their British
citizenship to British women who have
married aliens.
The International Council of Wom-
en-. the largest of the international or
ganizations of women in representing
the greatest number of countries, at
its meeting at Copenhagen two years
ago expressed in resolution the be-
lief of women Of many countries that
the citizenship of married women
should be upon an independent basis
and their sincere conviction that legis-
lative bodies will soon come to recog-
nize the justice and common sense Of
the women's stand in the matter.
In this country .he principle Of In
dependent citizenship for married
women has been indorsed by both the
Republican and Democratic parties
and was Incorporated in their 1920
platforms. In congress there Is pend
ing a bill (H. r. 12O22) relative to the
naturalization and citizenship of mar
ried women. 1t is indorsed by the
American Association of University
Women, National Federation of Busi-
ness and Professional Women, Coun-
ell of Jewish Women, General Fedora
tion Of Women's Clubs, National
League Of Women Voters, National
Women's Trade Union league and the
Women's Christian Temperance union.
The Carnegie foundation made n
special investigation to determine the
attitude of various judges exercising
Jurisdiction in naturalization cases.
and in that study replies from $50
Judges were to in favor of natural
izing women as individuals, and prac-
tically to In favor of allowing an
American woman to retain her citizen
ship regardless of marriage to an alien.

Summer feeding for egg production

The best way for the beet grower to
store pulp for winter feeding is to
spread it over the beet top silo. 1t
effectually seals the silage mass and
the heat from the silage warns the
pulp and thus hastens the curing
process: it also reduces the annoyance
