The aliendeportation laws should be strengthened and enforced. Miss Perkins. the Secretary of Labor. should be required to deport aliens in accordance with existing laws. which she has flagrantly failed to do. A number of Communists. active in the San Francisco strike. were deportable. but nothing was done. It is a disgraceful situation. and the entire blame rests upon the present administration and the attitude of the Department of Labor. If alien Communists do not like our country. our laws. our ways. or our institutions. all they have to do is to go back home. If. however. they insist on staying and spreading Communist poison and revolutionary propaganda against our institutions and urging the overthrow of our republican form of government by force and violence. then they should be immediately deported and the Congress should enact even stronger laws and see to it that they are enforced and not evaded and nullified by Miss Perkins. a member of President Roosevelts Cabinet. Instead of deporting alien Communists. the Department of Labor has recently admitted four wellknown foreign Communists. Thomas Mann and John Strachey. of England. Henry Barbusse. of France. and Willie Musenberg. of Germany. as temporary visitors into the United States to spread revolutionary communism and tell the American people that democracy. selfgovernment. and our free institutions are failures. and to urge the overthrow of our economic and political systems and our republican form of government. Why should any of these Communists from Europe be admitted as visitors to lecture in the United States when we have laws that call for the deportation of such alien Communists? Thomas Mann is an outstanding Communist labor agitator in England and does not seek to hide the fact. John Strachey and Henry Barbusse are both professed Communists and have written books on communism.
