- Description:
- 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.
