Hoover warns of underground Communist danger in US
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover testifies before a Senate subcommittee that communism is at a higher level in the United States than Nazism or Fascism during World War II. He cites 48 percent of party members in basic industries and outlines a shifting underground apparatus designed to disrupt strategic sectors if needed. He notes connections to foreign espionage and lists targets like atomic research, radar, and military sites. He estimates 4174 active party members with ten followers each, forming a potential fifth column. New York reports Dewey and O’Dwyer may seek high–pay public posts, with Dewey possibly joining The Wall Street Journal and O’Dwyer considering resigning as mayor for a $100,000-a-year role.
