The professor, Dr. Herbert J.| Phillips, testified that he has been a member of the Communist par- ty for the last 13 and a-half years. | But government objections prevent- | ed the witness from answering| questions designed to bring out whether he was released by the University of Washington because of his Communist affiliation. The judge said the case of Dr. Phillips was irrelevant to the de-| fense of those on trial in New York.
