Last week we held rather extensive hearings on the measure. and it is expected that the subcommittee will tomorrow vote to report the bill to the full Committee on the Judiciary on Monday. This bill takes care of sabotage and espionage. and the socalled "fifth column" activities. the activities of those who seek to influence members of the military and naval forces not to fight. and to engage in disloyalty and treachery. It also greatly widens the ground for deporting aliens and makes mandatory rather than discretionary some of the powers which formerly were reposed in the Secretary of Labor but are now under the Department of Justice. I thought the Senator would probably be glad to be advised that some of us really are trying to have enacted at this session legislation to meet the very emergent conditions which the Senator so eloquently points out.
