As chairman of the House Committee on UnAmerican Activities. he was a constant target of an organized Communist conspiracy designed to discredit the committee and its individual members. The tremendous support the committee received from the Members of the House was in large part a tribute to the effective leadership of "Tad" Walter. In his capacity as chairman of the Immigration Subcommittee. he achieved a nationwide reputation for his knowledge of our intricate immigration laws. Few Members of the House ever devoted themselves as zealously and continually to their responsibilities in such technical fields as "Tad" Walter. All of us who served with him will remember him as an outstanding colleague. a great American. and an effective leader in a complex legislative body.
