Will he fight for our institutions? Nay. gentlemen. Read the record in this case. It is bristling with evidence which leads me to the irresistible conclusion that Harry Bridges was and is a Communist. The evidence is as clear as the noonday sun that he is a very undesirable alien. Even the report of Dean Landis is most damaging to Bridges. I quote from the deans report. and he certainly put it in the most favorable light possible for Bridges: There is no doubt but that Bridges had at that time (1934) and has since. friends and associates who are Communists.
