If an alien belongs to the Communist Party. does that constitute a violation of the law? If our law is defective. the Secretary of Labor as well as you are powerless. If you want to straighten this question out. you have to give the committee of which I am chairman an opportunty to revise and revamp the whole law. so that we can put teeth in the deportation law. Last year we passed the Dies bill in this House. It was a very fine bill that would allow a handful of innocent people to remain permanently in the United States.
