They said I was unAmerican. Finally. however. such a bill was passed by the Congressnot my bill. but a bill introduced by Representative HOWARD SMITH. The bill did not even come from the Immigration and Naturalization Committee. it came from the Committee on the Judiciary. and was sponsored on the floor of the Senate by the junior Senator from Texas . If such a registration and fingerprintIng bill had been passed several years ago we would not today be having trouble with saboteurs and spies in this country. but every time anyone gets up and says something for the benefit of America and tries to do something for his own country. a number of persons say that he is a "fifth columnist." or that he is unAmerican. or something else. At times it becomes a little discouraging.
