Communists. Hitler sadists. morons. moral perverts. syphilitics. or lepers. they can do it. I think the House ought to know what it is legislating about. and I think. in a measure. this indicates how the cold war is unhinging the nerves of some of our high military authorities. The secrecy. especially the brand we are treated to. is ridiculous. Secondly these Immigration privileges are badly conceived. If you want to give this authority to the military. all right. but I think we should know what we are doing and whither we are going. The military is not infallible. Witness the situation of the charges levied by the military intelligence against one Agnes Smedley recently. that she was a Communist. or a Russian spy. and instead of retracting when they found they were in error. they simply admitted a faux pas.
