Brownell Sees Progress Made Against Reds Attorney General Cites Progress In . Continuing Battle (Editor’d note: — The attorney general of theWnited States. Herbert EJrownell Jr.. believes that important, progress was made in 1954 in tl>e continuing battle against the three C'4 which menace Amerlca“— corruption and communism. Brfewnell today details for International —News Service the justice department's program with emphasis /on its protection, of fundamental constitutional rights.!, By/Attorney General ■ 1 Herbert Brownell Jr. (Written Expressly for 1.N.5.) WASHINGTON' (INS) —.The "battles /against crime, corruption and Communism are never-ending —but every substantial progress was made in 1954. It was made while not only protecting. but strengthening the constitutional rights which are fundamental to our American way of lite. Tak/e Communism: It is recognized by the President, the congress and the courts as a godless, world wide .conspiracy. The Communist party and its fronts in this country are part of that conspiracy. The way to attack any conspiracy is to destroy its leadership. Twenty leaders of the Cdirffhuhist party were convicted, during the overthrow of the government by force| and violence. Another 29 wefe arffested and Indicted on the same charge; Six Communists were convicted of lying to the government and six more indicted for that. Sixty-five subversive aliens who abused this nation’s hospitality were reported and denaturalization proceedings were started against 34 subvfersiv.es. At the requesfot the department, congress enacted new laws designed to deter or discover subversion. An immunity statute should go far toward halting abuse of the fifth/ amendment privilege against self-incrimination. Espionage and sabotage laws have been fitted to modern conditions and weapons. All subversion is not necessarily Communism. For example, four members of the Nationalist-Party cf Puerto Rico were convicted for the shooting in the House of Representatives. They also were convicted with 12 others of this fanatic group for seditious conspiracy. An additional 12 . Nationalists ■were indicted for seditious conspiracy. A separate division of internal security was formed in the department of justice to concentrate on the continuing work-in this field. It is giving strong ticking to the outstanding accomplishments, of the federal bureau of investigation under director J. Edgat Hoover. Lt. General Joseph M. Swing was named commissioner of immigration and naturalization and immediately began modernizing outmoded procedures and administration of that service to speed its work. In cooperation with other state and federal agencies and with the Mexican government, a program was instituted to clear the United states of illegal Mexican migrants —so-called wetbacks—and to halt further illegal entries. Approx! inately 29.000 wetbacks were apprehended during the year. Thousands of others departed voluntarily. Border recruitment of legal migrant workers has met the /requests of agricultural employers i and health, crime and unemployment probleihs in border areas have decreased markedly A change in detention policy apd an increase in pre-inspectlon ser" Vices enabled the service to close its seaport detention facilities including Ellis Island. ’ Fuller meaning was given to our concept of equality in the historic supreme court decision ’holding that racial segregation of pupils in public schools isj unconstitutional. The court now'ls studying recommendations for an orderly changeover to integrated schools tailored to the needs and custom's pf those areas affected. The vigorous work of the antitrust division is giving new meanir.g to another baste concept—-that i(.f free enterprise, free competition. A dozen old antitrust takes 'pending in the courts since World War jl Were among 52 settled during .- the year and 35 new rasps were filed. A report is expected shortly from a committee which has been studying -the anti-trust laws apd tl eir enforcement. It will help-pro-vide a. sound basis for recommending to congress’ any needed changes 'or. making any necessary change:, in administration of those laws to keep American business healthy - IL.you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Wahi-Ad .t-Liing- results. < .
