mist film. It is be-
lated and insuffi-
E cient by far to re-
dress the record of calculated as
sistance Of the movie industry TO
the treason of the Hollywood Mus
covites over many years.
The riot against the film had
been advertised in advance by the
Communists SO frankly that the
New York police were on the
alert.
The preliminary speaker at the
garden was notorious thief and
Stacker, a nimble opportunist in re-
igious matters and a preacher Of
the Communist policies and pro-
gram. He is known by the alias Of
William S. Gailmor. His original
name was William Margolis. He 4
changed to Gailmor after he had
been caught stealing automobiles in
New York.
Gailmor, or Margolis, first came
to notice as a self-acl1nowledged
famous" commentator in l941. By
1914 he was making propaganda in
local radius around New York
for Roosevelt and the fourth term.
The investigation was difficult and
was unable to denounce him until
after election. I then presented his
criminal, and psychiatric, history
to Ed Noble, president Of the old
Blue network, a New Dealer who
did very well by himself in the ra-
dio business. Noble called in his
personnel chief, who produced a
pedigree filled in by Gailmor. IN
THE SPACE SLUGGED RELIC
ION." THE NSWER WAS
NONE"
About "a hours later,
Claims learning that he was
He's discovered, Gailmor
RELIGIOUS confessed his past to
his employers but said
he could not be a Communist be-
cause he was a very religious man.
He had,. in fact, been educated to
be a rabbi but had abandoned that
career after his arrest. He escaped
a prison term by accepting COM
mitment as a victim of a mental
disorder called a ''compulsion neu-
rosis." He couldn't resist the temp
tation to steal. That is the trouble
of all thieves.
When Henry Wallace set out on
his northwestern tour last winter,
Gailmor bobbed up in the troupe
in the role Of money-raiser. He
discoursed a patter to loosen UP the
suckers and he and his assistants
were using large milkcan to carry
off the collections.
The New York Herald Tribune
had a reporter along who wrote a
special story about Gailmor. It was
amusing and altogether favorable.
1t made no mention Of his COM
munistic associations or his GRIM
inal past.
On the night Of the riot at the
Roxy theater GaiImOr said from
the platform Of Henry WalIace's
rally in the garden: ga few blocks
down the street they are going to
show a fascist picture that should
be bOycOtted by every right
thinking person. So you know
what to do"
At the close Of the rally a scream
ing mob of 1000 Communists went
to the Roxy. There was disorder
and several persons were injured.
NOW TO SURROUND THE HER
AID TRIBUNE.
Last October Gail
On AiF NOR made a local
in broadcast in New
NetC York York with a guest
artist who was Joseph
G. Herzberg, city editor Of the Her
aid Tribune. Herzberg had written
a part Of and edited a new book
called Late City Edition"
In his introduction, GailInor
praised Albert Maltz, one Of 10
Hollywood rewrite hands indicted
for refusal to answer before the
Thomas committee whether they
were or ever had been members Of
the Communist party. He also
quoted Maltz in defense Of himself
and the other nine as ''the con-
science Of mankind
GaiImOr introduced Herzberg
in extravagant terms. This thief
and renegade Of both his religious
faith and the profession Of jOurn-
alism turned out TO be an old
friend Of the city editor Of the
Herald Tribune, which processes
to be a Republican paper. Gan.
NOR called the city editor Joe"
Herzberg called him "Bill." The
Herald Tribune received the
doubtful compliment Of recOgni-
tiOn by GaiImOr as "a great news
paper" That would Iift the HIT
to the level of the Daily Worker
and Pravda In his estimation.
