B. I.. the most efficient organization .of its kind on earth. perhaps. We have the intelligence service of the Army and the intelligence service of the Navy. and all the patriotic organizations and the officials of every State on the lookout. and yet they come here. the very ones. who have opposed restricting immigration. If you please. or some of. them have. and want this resolution adopted here .giving this committee power. to duplicate all that work. If any of you will read all its purposes. you will see that as Shakespeare says. it is as broad as the casing air. They can do almost anything. gallivant all around over the United States. if necessary. make all kinds of studies about postwar conditions. I wonder if the chairman would write us a report on postwar conditions along the lines of his ideas in the Bridges case and on immigration generally. Again. it gives them the power to summon witnesses and to require the production of books and papers and to delve into the private affairs of everybody. The American people are patriotic.
