Their secret emissaries are active in our own & neighboring countries. They seek to stir up suspicion & dissension to cause internal strife. They try to turn capital against labor & vice versa. They try to reawaken long slumbering racial & religious enmities which should have no place in this country. And there are also American citizens, many of them in high places, who unwittingly, in most cases, are aiding & abetting the work of these agents. I do not charge these American citizens w/ being foreign agents. But I do charge them w/ doing exactly the kind of work that the dictators want done in the United States. (missing material) 11:25:31 The experience of the past two years has proven beyond doubt that no nation can appease the Nazis. No man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it. There can be no appeasement with ruthlessness. There can be no reasoning w/ an incendiary bomb.
