Perkins. should be taken out of her hands and placed in the Department where it would be given more thorough attention. Those are the words of the President of the United States as I interpret them. The President further says: This has revealed a pressing need for the transfer of the immigration and naturalization functions from the Department of Labor to the Department of Justice. Is anyone surprised? I unhesitatingly say "no." because we have one instance in Harry Bridges. An examination of the facts in his case was made last summer. covering a period of several months. upon the west coast. and. as a matter of fact. he was whitewashed. But I am glad to be able to state that information reaches my ears to the effect that in the House of Representatives the committee having charge of matters of that sort has reported favorably a bill providing for the deportation of Harry Bridges. and with the deportation of Harry Bridges. whom we all know to be a Communist. I say that one of the stallions In the herd of Trojan horses will be deported from this country. and no longer will he be permitted to graze upon the green grasses in the dales and along the hillsides of America. I have high hopes that the other House of Congress will unanimously pass the bill providing for the deportation of Bridges. and that when it comes to the Senate this body of American legislators will quickly and without hesitation pass favorably upon the bill. Of all times in the history of this country when we should guard the very rooms in which we reside. now is the most critical time. But. unfortunately. it strikes me. from all I hear and all I read. that we are about to lock the door after the horse has been stolen. Nevertheless. we can clean house by looking carefully after those Trojan horses. those members of the fifth column. those alien enemies. who are in this country. who would wreck and destroy the land we love so dearly. So I say that I am indeed very glad that the President of the United States has seen fit to transfer this authority from the Department of Labor to the Department of Justice. The President says further: I am convinced. however. that under existing conditions the immigration and naturalization activities can best contribute to the national wellbeing only if they are closely integrated with the activities of the Department of Justice. In other words. the President of the United States is desirous of doing that which is best for the American people. at this time. in this hour of emergency. declared and accepted by all. We must guard ourselves from within.
