Paul Robeson Refuses to Admit Communist Ties Before Senate Panel
Paul Robeson defied the Senate judiciary committee yesterday by refusing to answer whether he is a member of the American Communist Party. He said he would go to jail rather than reveal his party membership, and warned the Mundt Nixon bill would be defied if passed. The exchange drew applause and boos as Ferguson pressed for an answer and Robeson invoked his right to a secret ballot.
