29 Stat. 797.

30 Ibid. A question having arisen as to the proper construction of this provision, the Attorney-General ruled in an opinion of July 21,1934 “that a child born abroad subsequent to May 24,1934, one of whose parents is a citizen of the United States and the other an alien, acquires American citizenship at birth. Such citizenship is subject to being divested if such child thereafter fails to comply with the two conditions described in the Act, which must be regarded as conditions subsequent and not as conditions precedent.“

34 These figures represent the latest official estimate taken from the Statistical Year-Book of the League of Nations, 1933-1934, pp. 18-23. It may be noted that this year book gives a total world population (estimated) of 2,041,600,000. The difference between that figure and the total population of the countries included in this study is made up chiefly by colonies for which separate nationality laws were not available.

121 “The Department holds that for a native American to put off his national character he should put on another. Continued residence of a native American abroad is not expatriation, unless he performs acts inconsistent with his American nationality and consistent only with the formal acquirement of another nationality… . Existing statutes confirm the principle by providing that citizenship shall flow to the children of American citizens born abroad, the birthright ceasing only with the grandchildren whose fathers have never resided in the United States. Foreign residence, even for two generations, is, therefore, not necessarily expatriation, in the sense of renouncing original allegiance, nor is it necessarily repatriation unless through the conflict of laws of the respective countries and the conclusion of conventional agreements between them.” Mr. Evarts, Sec. of State to Mr. Fish, charge“ d'affaires to Switzerland, Oct. 19, 1880, For. Rel. 1880, 960. John Bassett Moore, A Digest of International Law, Vol. III , p. 717.

122 Dean John H. Wigmore has made the interesting, but extreme, suggestion that citizenship be based on domicile and that two years’ residence in a country shall automatically result in an election of the citizenship of that country. See his article, “Domicile, Double Allegiance, and World Citizenship,” 21 III. Law Rev. (1927), 761.
