Chairman. I shall support this bill. I believe Harry Bridges and all of his kind should be deported. He is a troublemaker of the first order and America is not the place and now is not the time for troublemakers. In answer to the argument advanced by the distinguished gentleman who just preceded me on this floor. may I say that I believe this bill is constitutional. Much has been said concerning a bill of attainder. but I remind you that this is not an action that inflicts punishment for a crime. It Is an act by the legislative body against a single individual. but deportation is not punishment for a crime. Deportation is a civil proceeding. not a criminal prosecution.
