Ervin in the House of Representatives in 1945, discussing the proposed creation of the Fair Employment Practices Commission (F.E.P.C.) as a concentration camp for all Americans.

He warns that the F.E.P.C. would destroy individual liberty through regimentation and fear, and would have a disastrous effect on society.
