Ex Wife Urged Remington to Join Red Party Trial Testimony
Former wife Ann Moos Remington testified at the perjury trial of a former government economist that she urged him to remain a Communist and join party activities. She said she married him for reasons other than love and that she quit the Communist party in 1946. The couple's marriage began in 1938 and ended after years of separation. Remington, 33, of Ridgewood, N J, is accused of falsely swearing he never was a Communist and had left the Commerce Department post after indictment last July. The wife also described prior statements he made about being beaten in Harlan County Kentucky and possible union activity. In other news, Studebaker plans a 20 percent January production cut due to government restrictions on civilian use of defense materials.
