The Communist International has in its employ a network of agents whose sole function is to organize and promote Communist activity. espionage. propaganda. and terrorism. These agents are sent into the United States and other countries as the policy of the Stalinist high command dictates. Although some of these persons are native born or have acquired citizenship through naturalization. a substantial number of them are aliens. Under my bill these people would have to be excluded from admission. or deported if found in the United States. Second. Occasionally aliens who come to this country as immigrants do not leave behind them their loyalties to foreign governments and foreign ideologies. Some of them engage in subversive activity. organize or join Communist organizations. or engage in propaganda activities among their neighbors. Under my bill these people would have to be deported. Third. Agents of communism have used the customary courtesy extended by the United States to representatives of foreign governments. including diplomats. consuls. and other representatives. as a screen behind which to engage in espionage and other activities designed to overthrow our Nation by force and violence. Under my bill. these" people would have to be excluded from admission or deported if found in the United States. Fourth. Since the establishment of international organizations in this country. Communist agents have used them as a facade behind which to operate and to carry on antiAmerican activity. The evidence in the files of the subcommittee shows conclusively that many representatives and staff members of international organizations are engaging in subversie activities. beyond the scope of their legal duties. Under my bill. these people would have to be deported. Fifth. We have for many years extended the privilege to certain foreign governments to establish in this country missions. such as trading commissions and news agencies. Some of these. too. have been integrated into the international Communist espionagesabotEigesubversion network. They have expended vast sums of money for propaganda and intelligence work and have frequently supported Communist enterprises by direct contributions. Under my bill. these people would have to be deported. Mr. President. we are faced by the most tightly organized. the most extensive international conspiracy this world has ever seenand may God grant. shall ever see.
