COULffER. We are going to hear a lot during the debate on the rule and the bill it makes in order about hysteria. about civil rights. civil liberties. and so forth. But let me point out to you that this man is an undesirable alien. that for 20 years he has stirred up trouble in this country. One of the first things we ought to do at this time is to get our own house in order. We should be controlled neither by hysteria nor false sentiment. False sentiment should not lead us to try to protect aliens in this country who work against the interests of the country. If this man were an American citizen rather than a guest of the country and we had the laws to deport him. he ought to be deported. If that unfortunate time should come that we get into a great international crisis. this man. even though he were a citizen of the United States. would be interned. I think the rule ought to be adopted.
