Mundt Bills Foes Protest Across Capital
Washington observers reported a planned Wednesday protest at the Capitol by Mundt Nixon bill opponents led by Len Goldsmith of New York demanding a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. The House passed measure to require Communist registration drew shouts as witnesses prepared to testify. Paul Robeson and Joseph Kehoe declined to confirm Communist party membership during questioning. Debates on radio tied the bill to driving Communists into the open versus outlawing the party, with Mundt arguing jail if leaders refuse to register and Foster denying the bill’s aims.
