The real leadership of the Communist Party. as well as the leadership of the GermanAmerican Bund and the Fascist and Nazi Parties in this country. have been aliens. Some have become naturalized citizens not for the purpose of becoming good citizens but only for the purpose of throwing around themselves the cloak of the constitutional guaranty of freedom of speech and the press to protect themselves against deportation. The rank and file. however. is composed of misguided American citizens. some of them in the substrata of economic life in this country. On the other hand so far as the Communists are concerned. not only are they in the substrata economically but many are found in the socalled intelligentsia who are swept off their feet by the dreams they have of state socialism.
