Gentlemen, I am here [...]' began General Moseley. Washington, D.C., May 31. Major General George Van Horn Moseley, U.S.A. retired, provided members of the Dies Committee with testimony today following a brief argument over a statement which he wished the read. With the opening statement, 'Gentlemen, I am here...' he was cut short by acting Chairman Arthur Healy. 'You can answer that question. You're not here to make a speech.' He said that if he were president, he would enforce a 1929 statute which empowers the president to use the army to fight subversive activities within the country. Behind the General is Rep. J. Thorkelson of Montana, whom Moseley said would 'bring it all out on the floor of the House'
