Clarence Brown Of Ohio asked
him 10 divulge the identities of
Communists who are active In
Sidney Hillman's CIO-Political
Action Committee, Mr.. Browder
refused point-blank to comply.
No effort was made to force
an answer from him. The kind
illness and consideration of the
congressional interrogators was
touching. You could see they
didn't wish TO hurt his feelings.
Mr.. Browder swiveled around
in his chair and lectured the
congressman in simple terms as
if he didn't consider them any
too bright. He informed them
that il may be some time before
America is sufficiently enlight-
ened by education to overthrow
the present capitalistic system.

He laid a lot OF things out on

pile and weighed it, calculating
the price according to the OPA
scales.
He discovered that on every
item, his way of pricing was
cheaper than the OPA ceiling
and he could raise all his prices.
But did he? No. He merely
