66 Stat. 163, § 337 (a). In United States v. Schwimmer, 279 U.S. 644 (1929); and United States v. Macintosh, 283 U.S. 605 (1931) it was held, by a divided Court, that clauses (3) and (4) of the oath, as previously prescribed, required the candidate for naturalization to be ready and willing to bear arms for the United States, but these holdings were overruled in Girouard v. United States, 328 U.S. 61 (1946).
