v2924-856
10
having met other requirements, it appears will
make good American citizens. Consequently, the
courts agree that naturalization is a matter of
grace, not of right, a privilege to be granted only
upon compliance with all the terms prescribed by
the Congress; that the good moral character re-
quirements continue up to and including the date
of final hearing upon the petition for naturaliza-
tion ; that the petitioner has the burden of proving
good moral character; and that all doubts as to
his good moral character must be resolved against
the petitioner.
Appellant has presented no evidence of good moral
character or other evidence that would show her as
a desirable citizen. To the contrary, there is much
evidence showing that her character is questionable
at best, none of which was rebutted in the District
Court.
CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, it is respectfully urged
that the decision of the court below be affirmed.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES P. MORIARTY
United States Attorney
- CUSHMAN
Assistant United States Attorney
