subsequently said: Mr. President. a few moments ago the Senator from North Carolina offered an amendment to the pending bill dealing with the deportation of Harry Bridges. The amendment was subsequently withdrawn. because. I understand. the view was entertained that the pending bill should be disposed of at as early a date as possible. and that the amendment could not be considered germane. The Senator from Arizona . chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary. made a statement with which I entirely agree. namely. that the bill for the deportation of Mr. Bridges is not a bill of attainder. that it is within the power of Congress to deport any alien for any cause. or without any cause. The chairman of the Committee on the Judiciary is a lawyer of ability. and his judgment upon legal questions is entitled to very great consideration.
