That subject is under consideration by the Congress. particularly by the House Ways and Means Committee. at this time. Formerly the American Legion met with considerable opposition whenever it urged the. enactment of its program. one feature of which. I might mention incidentally. involved the deportation of alien Communist Harry Bridges. of the Pacific coast. but. unfortunately. Mr. Bridges proved more powerful and more influential than the American Legion. I may add in parentheses that I recall that during the discussion of one of our defense bills I proposed an amendment for the deportation of Mr. Bridges. but. unfortunately. the Congress of the United States did not see fit to follow me in that respect. Nevertheless.
