We do not know whether it is just the whim of an individual member. We may take it for granted. however. that the impeachment had its origin in the proceedings of the Dies committee. I call your attention to the fact that in 1932. when my good and distinguished friend the gentleman from Texas was a member of the Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. we reported from that committee a bill. the report on which the gentleman from Texas wrote. in which we included language that would take care of the cases of Strecker. Bridges. and other alleged Communists if they were really members of an organization engaged In an attempt to overthrow the Government by force or violence. The bill was reported by the committee. but never became a law.
