I move to strike out the last word. Mr. Chairman. almost every Member of Congress goes back to his own district and denounces the Communists and tells his constituents what he wants to do to the Communists. what the Congress wants to do to them. how the alien Communists ought to be deported. yet when an amendment comes before the House. a simple amendment to put some teeth and strength into the bill in order to bring the Communist Party and the bundists directly under the provisions of the bill. then we begin to run to cover. We pussyfoot and shadowbox to avoid the issue. which is very simple. to strengthen this bill to include the Communist Party and the bundists which almost 99 percent of the people back home want done. yet. for some technical reason or for some unknown reason we evade the issue. we pussyfoot. we run to cover. and do nothing about it. Let us stop giving lip service and get down to real action.
