House committee to prepare anti subversion program
The House Committee on American Activities ends four months of testimony and plans to report next month a program to curb subversive influences in the United States. Proposals include stricter immigration laws, alien pledge of allegiance, enforcement of naturalization rules, government access to internal records, outlawing certain options, and listing members of political organizations with real names. The probe, led by Rep Dies, also examined Communist and Bund activities and alleged Soviet influence in labor and WPA groups. The piece ends noting the longest non stop railway by Scotsman between London and Edinburgh.
