President. if this is a nationaldefense bill. we ought to deport from this country all aliens who have not been in thorough accord with our American way of life. Therefore. I have already sent to the desk. and I offer to this bill. an amendment providing for the immediate deportation of alien Harry Bridges. I offered this amendment when the Senate was discussing the Selective Service Act. and friends of mine in the Senate prevailed upon me not to insist upon it at that time. because they said the amendment was not germane to the subject of the bill itself. I respectfully submit that we in this country cannot carry on and make progress with our nationaldefense program if we have among us. * and in our midst. alien Communists such as Bridges has been declared to be.
