I shall address myself especially to the sections which deal with the subject of the suppression of anarchy. In doing so I wish it known. first of all. that there is not a member on this floor who more deprecates that kind of organization in our midst and who is more willing to go. as far constitutionally as we can. than I am to suppress it. as far as Federal legislation will do it. leaving the balance of it to the States. I am willing to prevent all that by any necessary amendment to the immigration laws. and to keep them from becoming citizens. and leave the balance of it with the State. But in this bill I object to a certain clause in it. which is dangerous to the liberties of our people and the press. and especially I refer to section 9. and the words used in that section which refer to this subject in these words: "Any person who shail encourage another to commit an assault upon a foreign ruler or the highest executive of a foreign nation." etc.. dealing exclusively with foreign rulers. Now.
