Framed From Senate and
House Measures During

Washington, Jan. 8.-(AP)-South-
ern senators, filibustering the anti
lynching bin with oratory on almost
every conceivable subject, turned to-
day to communism, fascism and Nazi-
ism for new targets of eloquence.
Senator Reynolds, Democrat North
Carolina, not only denounced what he
called these "subversive' influences in
America, but introduced two bills to
put teeth into his argument that there
should be laws against the dissemina-
ton of foreign propaganda in this
country.
One OF tn - measures would cancel
the citizenship of any naturalized cit
izen who advocated political doc
trines subversive to the best interests
of the United States" 1t would also
provide for the deporting of such an
individual.
The other would make it criminal
offense ito advise, advocate or teach
principles of government based in
whole or in part in opposition to or
discrimination against peoples of any
particular race or creed"
The handful of senators who com
prised Reynolds audience appeared in
festive mood. Several smiled knowing

ject to subject.
