A. It is if not overdone. Over-eX-

CAPITAL
SPOTLIGHT
BY MILTON FRIEDMAN

The Government has repri-
manded a us. naturalization
officer who sought to inject
a question of dual loyalty"
involving ZiOnism into citizen,
ship examination procedures.
AS a result of the govern
ments action, a rabbits faith
in America has been restored.
Rabbi Berel Weiss, of Denver,
Colo, looked forward for a
lifetime to American citizen
ship. But on August 18, when
he appeared for an oral exam
inatiOn IN Denver he was
asked: Are you a Zionist?"
His witnesses, Rabbi Lejzor
Bryks and Rabbi Chain Davi-
dOVich, interceded. They asked
the official, Brooks Thomas,
why the question was asked.
Thomas replied: We'll, there
is always the question of dual
loyalty and anyways we're
supposed to ask the question
under the new immigration
law" He referred to the Nc
Carran-Walter Act.
The matter was referred by
Denver to the Anti-Defama-
ton League in Washington.
Herman Edelsberg, Washing
ton ADJ director, wrote Gen.
Joseph M. Swing, Commits
sioner of immigration and
Naturalization. Edelsberg also
wrote that he believed the
Denver incident altogether
inconsistent with the prac-
tices and policies of the I'm
migration and Naturalization
Service and the Justice De
partment."
After a study of the case,
A. c. Devaney, assistant COM
missioner in charge of the in
Spection and examination di-
vision, made known that "the
officer involved has been rep
rimanded for his handling of
the case and admoniShed re-
garding the line of question
ing engaged in these cases.
You may be assured that there
will be no repetition of the in
cident."
Before receipt of DeVaney's
letter, the ADJ had gotten an
other report involving the
same officer. Thomas was
quoted as having stated to
another Jewish candidate for
citizenship that being a Zion
ist was not consistent with
being a good American.
Persons applying for citi-
zenship have been asked
about pro-Zionist leanings in
other instances. However,
there is no accurate means
of determining the extent of
this practice. Fearing they
would be denied citizenship if
