Any person in the United States has the constitutional right to believe that a dictatorship as defined by the bill is the best form of govern- ment for this country so long as he does not directly take action in accordance with his belief that leads to a substantial breach of the peace. One of the leading Supreme Court cases embodying this principle is gchneiderman v. United States, which came down in 1943 and is reported at 320 U. S. 118. In this case the Government attempted to cancel Schneid...erman's naturalization because it developed that he was a member of the Communist Party. The Court upheld Schneiderman's right to believe as he saw fit and said at page 139: "Whatever attitude we may individually hold toward persons and organiza- tions that believe in or advocate extensive changes in our existing order, it should be our desire and concern at all times to uphold the right of free dis- cussion and free thinking to which we as a people claim primary attachment. To neglect this duty in a proceeding in which we are called upon to judge whether a particular individual has failed to manifest attachment to the Constitution would be ironical indeed.
