1or lurCnerlng your own selfish am
bitions and those of your father
land in the U. S. S. R.
Private Lives No Secret.
Had your aims been true and for
the best interest of our Nation. you
would not have had to call upon
your father and high priest, Joseph
Stain, for every move you make, but
would have found your leadership
here in the United States.
Many of your members have come
from foreign shores to our land to
escape oppression and like termites
DO not become members of our
household, but gnaw at the pillars of
our democracy with hopes that it
will crumble and you might profit
by its fall.
You shout to high heaven your
praise for the Bill of Rights and all
1t stands for, yet in your own party,
you pry into every members private
life, and see to it with all your power
that he cannot live life of his own.
Accord Is Cited.
Yes, your speakers rave for hours
about the mad dogs of Fascism and
how your, fatherland, the U. S. S. r..
and its leader, Joseph Stain, is the
greatest bulwark against Fascism
and the defender of democracy, and
While these words are yet wet upon
your lips the great Red Army of the
tatherland and your beloved peace
leader, Joseph Stain, join hands in
accord with Adolf Hitler, one of the
biggest Fascist leaders and one of
the greatest enemies of democracy
In our times, and together they de-
stroy Poland and bring little Latvia,
Estonia and Lithuania to their
knees. Yes, all this your fatherland
Goes In the name of peace and
democracy. But do you have the
protection of a democracy and tell
your fatherland, the U. S. S. R..
that you do not approve of the
action taken by the Red Army in it's
conquest of Poland? No, and by
these and many other actions you
prove that you and your organiza-
ton are no more than puppets
dancing on the strings pulled by
Joseph Stain and the Comintern.
Because of your n-American
ways and your lie of your so-called
defense of democracy, I hereby sub
init my resignation from the Y. C. l..
and the Communist party to take
effect Immediately. I shall take
my stand with those who are fight
ing for real Americanism and de
mocracy. I know that this is
long and bitter fight and 1 am en-
listed for the duration of the war"
Mr.. Golf described how, after
Joining the Communist party and
the Young Communist League, he
was given "a membership at large"
30 he could work among front"
organizations and church groups
without his real identity becoming
known. He said he operated under
the party name" of John Keats
in public and as No. 18 B-1 in the
party itself.
The witness also told how ofncial
correspondence to him from party
headquarters was labeled and sealed
so if the letters were ever opened
before he received them he would
know it Immediately and could notify
his superiors in the organization.
The official correspondence. he said,
also contained "sticker" which had
to be returned to party headquarters
to indicate to officers it had been
received intact. In addition, he said,
ne changed his mailing address from
Time to time so people would not
get wise he was receiving Com
munist literature.
Under questioning by DR.. j. B.
Matthews, chief committee investi-
gator, Mr.. Golf outlined in some de-
tall proceedings at the Eighth Ma
tional Convention of the Young
Communist League in New YORK
City, and recited the verses OF
some OF the songs he said members
OF the league sing at meetings. The
verse OF one song in particular is
unprintable.
