Concerns Over the Mundt-Ferguson Bill: A Statement by Helen Gahagan Douglas, 1950-03-31
Scope and Contents
Helen Gahagan Douglas criticizes the Mundt-Ferguson Bill as being worse than the previous Mundt-Nixon Bill, which was rejected by Thomas E. Dewey. She believes that passing this bill would lead to a police state in America and argues that there are already laws in place to deal with treasonous activities. She opposes totalitarian methods in both Communist countries and the United States.
