fidavit, before they could draw
their pay that they were not mem
berS of any organization advocat-
ing the overthrow of the conSti--
tutional form of government in the
United States.
The publication Of these lists by
the Dies committee will reveal how
many important officials belonging
TO Subversive organizations arc
still drawing their pay, notwlth-
standing these statutes.
Communist sympathizers in tho

would strengthen their position

The Dies Committee does not
subscribe TO this view.
