AEC chief David Lilienthal said officers must submit non Communist oaths and obtain FBI loyalty clearances, with steps including barring UE from the Peekskill Schenectady plant and Knolls laboratory. Union president Albert Fitzgerald denounced the charges as political maneuvering while defending members' loyalty.
