Wreck bridges. burn warehouses. and do whatever else was necessary to carry on this vicarious revolution that these tentacles of the Communist Internationale were preparing for in the district represented by the gentleman from New York and in every other district where they reside. I said to him: "Nowell. did you see this man Eisler here this morning?" He said. "Yes. I saw him." I said. "Had you ever seen him before?" "Oh. yes." he said. "he was one of the instructors in that Communist school in Moscow when I was over there. teaching. me how to destroy my country." It became so horrible that this young Negro quit and came home and turned states evidence. and here was this Eisler parading around claiming that he was a refugee. His brother was out in California and was just as bad as he was. if not worse. He was writing the songs to go Into the picture shows to be sung to your children. and his cohorts were making the pictures and writing the scripts to poison the minds of the children of America. to undermine the moral fabric of this Nation. drag it down in wrack and ruin and subordinate it to that loathsome outfit that is unfit to govern anything. anytime. anywhere.
