Mr. Speaker. I note that the newspapers recently carried an item that the deportation proceedings against Mrs. Browder are going forward. and it appears that she will be deported. I hold no brief for Mrs. Browder. nor do I defend her. going on the assumption that she is being properly deported on account of the evidence and the facts that the Attorney General has against her. and if these facts justify the proceedings. I want to congratulate the Attorney General for fulfilling his duty. Now that these proceedings are going forward. I want to ask you and the Attorney General what Mrs. Browder has done that makes her deportable that Harry Bridges has not only done once. but many times. And I make the further statement that Harry Bridges has committed 50 offenses for every one that has been committed by Mrs. Browder. Still. Harry Bridges is not being deported. Why is this? Can the answer be that Mrs. Browder had no powerful friend in the Cabinet such as Madam Perkins to protect her and keep her from being deported. I have had this matter on this floor. as you know. for 2 years. The Department of Justice has been cognizant of this. the F. B. I. has Bridges record and says he should be deported. and I am again asking the question. why does not the Attorney General act? Harry Bridges is guilty of perjury. disturbing the peace. lawbreaking. has been accused by a Member on this floor of being involved in a conspiracy to murder. but that mysterious help that comes from somewhere apparently keeps him in this country. so that he can now continue in his destructive activities of going 1i Hawaii to see if he cannot destroy the shipping in Hawaii. and when he does. his destructive force is going to be felt on our national preparedness there.
