McGrath action urged under internal security emergency
Eastland urged Congress to declare an internal security emergency enabling a roundup of those deemed likely to engage in espionage or sabotage. The plan could consider past Communist Party membership within three years as grounds for detention in designated facilities, with McGrath taking preparatory steps though not an active move. Franklin Small Sr seeks GOP nomination in Maryland fifth district.

Concentration Camps For Reds Bill Introduced In Senate
