Speech #700056903

I desire to submit that inasmuch as exPresident Roosevelt typified virile American citizenship and preached the doctrine of redblooded Americanism. It would lie better to use the proposed fund in stamping out Bolshevism and in deporting those foreign believers in and followers of the red flag. This would be a finer monumlent to tlhe lail who has been termed the " typical American " than ally monument of stone or structure that might be erected. no matter how beautiful its form or how polished its surface. I believe il freedom of speech and freedom of thought. But when a man comes to this country from some other ]and. and tfinding that he can not convince by persuasive methods the people of the United States that his doctrines are true. takes a bomb or some other sort of missile and tries to force an unwilling people to accept his doctrine. he is unpatriotic. unAmerican. and undesirable. Ile should be deported. along with all tIle others of his class. and given a chance on some island or somewhere else. where such characters can live together and try out their absurd doctrines on each other. and not be left In a country that has grown great and powerful in recognition of law and constitutional rights. There has never been a time in the history of this Government when so many radical and revolutionary doctrines were being taught as now. These are being taught by men who believe in no flag except the red flag.
