Mr. Speaker. there is something more to be done in this country and by this Congress. While we are able to pick up a number of aliens. we are unable and helpless to do something about certain naturalized citizens coming from the Axis countries who hide behind the cloak of citizenship. It is pretty difficult at this time to do anything about it. despite the fact that these individuals take advantage of every possible right they may have as citizens of this country to indirectly help the Axis countries with whom we are at war. I am happy to say that at the request of the Attorney General of our Government. and our own Committee on Immigration and Naturalization. I have today introduced a bill that will take care of that situation. and will put some teeth into the law by which the Government can dispose of saboteurs and this unAmerican group. parading under citizenship colors. and by which we will be able to dispose of them as circumstances may warrant. I shall put into the RECORD in connection with my remarks an analysis of the bill I introduced. Had this Congress listened to me 3 or 4 or 5 years ago when I appealed on the floor almost every day. giving names and addresses of persons. both aliens and citizens. who .were subversive. we would not find ourselves in the position that we are in today. But it is never too late. and I hope when I bring this bill out. as I expect to do in the next few days. that the House will give me an opportunity to rid this country of all subversive groups. citizens or noncitizens.
