"I speak of only one source of shame to decent Americans who want their country to be admired by the world. I mean the group of bigots known as the Dies Committee--then the Rankin Committee, and now the Thomas Committee--THREE NAMES FOR FASCISTS, the world over to roll on their tongues with pride."
