So we are going to ask the Attorney General to proceed in a dual capacity in this particular case to prosecute Eugene Dennis in full conformity with the intent of Congress. I want to say too that because I have every hope that Eugene Dennis will wind up in the penitentiary as the result of the present proceedings. that when and if that happy eventuality occurs I hope Americans will not have a false sense of security through saying to themselves. "Well. now we do not have to worry about the Communists any more. because some of the top brains are behind the bars in America." Unfortunately. that is not the case. In fact. the master plotters behind the Communist movement work out of Moscow through the international headquarters and also in Paris. and have a long succession of potential leaders. nativeborn or immigrants. whom they can throw into the breach to take the place of the Browders. the Fosters. and the Dennises once they are brought to justice. So we cannot let down in our alertness-. cannot decrease our vigilance. even if we have succeeded now and then in checking off one of their leaders or putting them in jail. New leaders will come iii to take their place just as long as communism has a following in this country. just as long as its directive agency in Moscow continues to seduce Americans to pay first loyalty to the U.
