The questions went to the meat of the whole matter with which we are dealing. namely. Is there a sort of international underground composed of crooks. gangsters. and racketeers who are moving into the labor movement? Are there in the labor movement persons who should be deported because they are holding offices and are engaging in corrupt practices and. in the first place. are in this country illegallynot established citizens of the Nation? So. no court can hold that these questions are not pertinent and relevant. because they go to the whole purpose of the investigation. namely. in what areas is it necessary to write legislation? When. in connection with that matter. witnesses frivolously and capriciously take the fifth amendment. it is time to cite them for contempt. so that the courts of the Nation. from the lowest tribunal to the highest in the land. will be able to protect honest. decent American citizens from the corruption of those aliens who engage in such activities. and who have tried to protect themselves by a capricious use of the fifth amendment.
