No. One Ism Hunter—— SOME OF DIES' HAY-MAKERS LAND— ANYWAY, THINGS START T0 HAPPEN The Dies Committee has been producing a show unpar- alleled in recent times for bitter controversy and hilari- ous comedy. Now it's preparing its report to Congress, conven- ing January 3, which must de- cide whether the committee shall be continued. Who is Dies? What has his commit- tee done? Where's he going? These important news questions are answered in 2 series of three articles, of which this is the second. By MORGAN M. BEATTY AP Feature Service Writer WASHINGTON—Martin Dies has flailed the air with many a gro- tesque haymaker intended for the solar plexus of some “ism” outfit in the United States. He and his committee investigating un-Ameri- canism have also hit 'em where it hurts—hard, Mixed in with such telling blows as the indictment of No. Communist Earl Browder for pass- port fraud, are offers from Strip- ing : [mittee has passed out a definition of a de- portable alien, That went on for months. Finally the Supreme Court eased by the question, and at long last this fall Harry Bridges was brought before an immigration hearing. A decision is now pend- ing Publicity is the one wide-open avenue to results for any con- gressional committee investigat- “isms.” The Russo-German non-aggres- sion pact, signed last August, was right down Dies' alley. In no time at all he was howling derisively at those unnatural bedfellows. “Communazis,” he shouted, with an I-told-you-so glint in his eye.| And there's little doubt but what that pact gave the Dies Commit-{ tee added lustre Dies has convinced lots of vot-| ers that there's bound to be some subversive fire behind all the smoke his witnesses are fanning |up, Despite his frank admission that he'd heard quite a few crack- pot witnesses, and his investigat- ing staff was inefficient at first, Congress voted Dies another $100,- | 000 to continue the show through, 1939. And it's a 1-to-1 bet on i Capitol Hill that Congress will give| { him another $100,000 for curtain| i calls in the critical election year of 1940, i That's $225,000 for a five-foot sheif of Un-Americana ‘ SINCE DIE 'TARTED . . . | WASHINGTON.—The Dies com-| definitely stuck its fingers into events in this country| in the last year and a half. Since it went into action, these impor-| tant developments have occurred: | 1. Earl Browder, America’s No.| 1 Communist, has been indicted| for passport evasion 2. Pritz Kuhn has been convict- ed in a New York court of steal- ing the funds of the German-Am- erican (Nazi) Bund. 3. The Democratic party lost 70/ seats in Congress in the 1938 elec-l’ tions, although unbiased observers | By CLIFF ST WHY, JUST SO THAT GUESTS wiLL BE SURE TO CALL AGAIN--- OR STAY AwWAY/ ERHET% o o witnesses—at least one a Republi- can—charged he was not doing his duty when he failed to chuck out the Flint sit-downers in 1037, 5. Dies boasts that one of the country’s large labor organizations is conducting a quiet purge of its Communists. 6. Dies insists the Roosevelt ad- ministration is purging 2,850 known Communists from key positions in the government. 7. CIO's West Coast big shot, Harry Bridges, was ultimately brought to trial as a deportable alien Communist. (Decision pend- ing.) 8. Congress voted an invstiga- tion of the National Labor Rela- tions Board. 9. Congress put a stop to the WPA's Federal Theater Projects, FRITZ KUHN Convicted which Dies witnesses said were over-ridden with Communists. 10.
