Supreme Court Rules Against Communist Party Activity
In a 5 4 ruling, the Supreme Court upholds key government weapons against Communist party activity in the United States. The decisions approve the Smith Act provision banning membership in organizations advocating violent overthrow and require the Communist party to register as a Kremlin puppet under the Subversive Activities Control Act of 1950. Justice Frankfurter writes for the majority, while Gus Hall denounces the rulings as undermining democracy.
