Government protections under new anti-Communist law
James Marlow reports that despite the law taking effect on Saturday, it may take years before prohibitions against Communists and Communist fronts in government or defense jobs become crimes. The loyalty program has already ousted some, but jail time depends on court rulings. The FBI can vet workers and the secretary of defense could post notices to bar Communist workers from critical roles, aiding national security though enforcement hinges on court decisions. Also notes requests for radio announcers with English public school education in New Zealand.
