R. 10 is urgently needed. We cannot afford to allow these Communist agitators and organizers to continue their work to disrupt our industrial plants. which may soon be mobilized for war production or to undermine civilian morale with their untruths and distortions. We would be betraying our pledge to the boys who are fighting on the Asiatic front if we allowed their efforts to be sabotaged on the home front. The sacrifices which they are daily making demand that we take steps here at home to ensure that the victories which they win will not be hollow ones. We must make certain that our country remains free from fifthcolumn activities so that our will to fight Communist aggression wherever necessary is not sapped by clever sabotage and Communist propaganda.
