It has for its .purpose the reaching of subversive influences in our defense establishments. The amendment the gentleman from Pennsylvania seeks to engraft on that language would have the effect of preventing any funds under this bill from being paid to any person who is not a citizen of the United States or who has not declared his intention of becoming a citizen. In many of our defense industries we have refugee experts from the democratic countries that have been overthrown. They have come to America and are occupying important posts in our defense industries. It is impossible to know how far reaching such an amendment would be.
