|kiwanis Head Reports
On tS Months Probe
|0f Communist Party

]. N. Emerson, international pres
ident of Kiwanis, yesterday told
about $50 members OF the club at q
luncheon here how he spent Is
months In an undercover i1yestiga-
tion Of the Communist Party.
The retired owner OF several Pa.
|cific Coast department stores urged
the Kiwanians to keep themselves
informed on communism but de-
clared he was opposed to witch
hunting" or legislation which would
outlaw the party. He said it is an
error to accuse all liberals OF being
Communists.
Mr.. Emerson said his Investigation
lof the Communist Party started In
1888, when he called on the Amtorg
Trading Co. In New York to buy
Russian linen. The company, Mr..
Emerson said, was doing all pur-
chasing and selling here for the
Soviet government before Russia
was recognized by the United States.
Attended Secret Meetings.
He said he attended secret meet
ings of the party and met Earl
Browder, former head Of the party.
and Louis Budenz, former editor Of
the Daily Worker but now a profess
sor at Fordham University.
Mr.. Emerson said he kept the FBI
informed of his activities during his
investigation. In 1885, when he be-
gan to express his own views on
economic and political matters, he
was warned not to attend any more
party meetings, he said. Until that
time he had received copies of the
Daily Worker, Izvestia and Pravda.
The three papers stopped coming,
once his views were known, he said.
He renewed his subscription to
the Daily Worker, but did not receive
the paper. although the money he
sent for it was not returned, he said.
Warns Of School Groups.
He warned Kiwanians to make
sure schools in their home towns do
not have q chapter of the American
Youth for Democracy group, which,
he said, is the new name for the
Young Communist League. He said
there are go chapters in colleges and
high schools In IA states.
The luncheon, held In the May
flower Hotel, was to commemorate
the 30th anniversary of the found
ing Of the Washington chapter Of
