This description is from Mr. Hoover. the leading authority on the subject of communism. In considering our security it must be remembered that not only is the Justice Department involved. but so is the Department of State. for under the present law the State Department has control over the issuance of passports and visas. and since a decision of the Supreme Court on July 16. 1958. a number of wellknown Communists have traveled abroad to Russia and while abroad have made specific attacks against this country. While considering the passport problem. I think we will all agree that our security should be. and in fact must be. a nonpolitical consideration.
