President. as for the latter portion of the editorial in reference to "bounding Harry Bridges. the stormy petrel of the Pacific coast." I unhesitatingly assert that probably no single individual in the United States has more thoroughly hampered nationaldefense progress in this country than has he. and my answer to the inquiry by the Charlotte Daily News. "What about Bridges?" is that to the bill now under consideration. H. R. 1776. I propose to introduce an amendment which will provide for the immediate and mandatory deportation of alien Harry Bridges. If this is a nationaldefense bill. then why not rid ourselves of nonAmerican citizensalien. communistic agitatorswho are interfering with the construction of a national defense which is enthusiastically desired and demanded by the American people? Therefore.
