I have lived long enough and have served the people sufficiently long to make me very certain of my position. and with regard to the sincerity of my position. I have no apology to make for pointing out to the people of the country the great threat to their freedoms which has come through the efforts. and I am sorry to say the partially successful efforts. of certain persons in this countryincluding the Senator from Wisconsinto silence those who would oppose the effort to impose complete conformity and complete orthodoxy on every thought and every action of the people of this country. I have opposed the McCarran Immigration Act. which was one of those mentioned by the Senator from Wisconsin. because I believe its provisions are completely repugnant to the spirit of America. I have pointed out on the floor of the Senate and in other places. the dangers to our freedoms that will come if we allow the will of a selected few to be imposed on all our citizens. and if we allow these few to intimidate the others into silence because the others do not want to take the chance of being attacked. I shall not discuss the question of the franking privilege.
