In his speech at the German Jewish Congregation, New York, last Friday night, Representative Samuel Dickstein asserts that he did not mean to imply “temporary suspension” of the anti-Nazi campaign of the House committee on immigration and naturalization of which he is chairman.
“There will be a slight delay in the action of Congress on resolutions introduced by me with reference to the proposed anti-Nazi investigation,” he explains. “The calendar of the House of Representatives at the present time is congested with a number of bills dealing with the present economic program, and it will take approximately a week or ten days for this program to be disposed of. As soon as the decks are cleared for action my resolution will be taken up by Congress and the work of further investigations of the Nazi activities will be pushed forward rapidly to a final conclusion.”
