record. This is now being submit
ted in the form Of newspaper clip

sent through the mails.
The committee has 50 far failed to
find evidence Of an organized propa-
ganda system paid for with foreign
money, or directly connected with
the Russian Bolshevild.

Out Of the testimony submitted.
committee members said today one
clear fact has disclosed itskif-the l.
W. W. in the United States is the
most potent influence for the spread
Of the doctrines Of unrest.
For many days the committee has
been hearing about Russia and do
ings Of the BolsheVikl there, until It
seemed, Senator King said. that sight
had been lost Of the Investigations
real purpose. This was to determine
how extensive BolsheviIx activities in
the United States have been, and to
report on means for eounteracting
them.
King asked Raymond Robins, who
was concluding his testimony. whether
ne knew Of any organised propaganda
movement in the United States.
Robins replied he did NOT. but ADDED
