monstrosity is quite another. It is a blunderbuss bill which would entrap the innocent far more often than the Communists. restrict dissenting opinion. establish intolerable antiimmigration quotas and. In general. make all Americans suspect and fear one another. as men do in Russias slave states. Conservative and liberal newspapers joined in opposing the bill. But only 7 men dared to vote against a measure which was proclaimed to be antisubversive. The Members of the Senate were the first victims of their own frenzy. We are sure many of them voted for it with sick hearts and troubled consciences. But 70 Senatorsincluding IVES of New Yorkvoted for it.
