of this statute should also be noted, as they contain provisions applicable to minor children. They are as follows:

"Sec. 5. That a child born without the United States of alien parents shall be deemed a citizen of the United States by virtue of the naturalization of or resumption of American citizenship by the parent: Provided, That such naturalization or resumption takes place during the minority of such child: And provided further, That the citizenship of such minor child shall begin at the time such minor child begins to reside permanently in the United States."

"Sec. 6. That all children born outside the limits of the United States who are citizens thereof in accordance with the provisions of section nineteen hundred and ninety-three of the Revised Statutes of the UnitedStates and who continue to reside outside the United States shall, in order to receive the protection of this Government, be required upon reaching the age of eighteen years to record at an American consulate their intention to become residents and remain citizens of the United States, and shall be further required to take the oath of allegiance to the United States upon attaining their majority."

That there had been a change is frankly stated in the communication (a copy of which is annexed to the complaint) addressed by the American Consul at Goteborg, Sweden, to the respondent's father under date of October 29, 1935.

The same may be said of the opinion of the Circuit Court of Appeals of the Ninth Circuit in United States v. Reid, 73 F.2d
