In two days Of testimony, given
in a voice as mild as his name
Mr.. Lamb several times de-
parted from an account of his
past associations and activities
to attack the Commission. He
said he hoped he would "go
down in history for having had
the courage to resist these en-
croachments against our Ameri-
can freedoms"
Mr.. Lamb, publisher Of the
Erie Dispatch Herald, empha-
sized that he was not here with

any Of his past activities. APP
parently regarding himself as a
sacrificial lamb, he said he hoped
that his experience would elm

happening again.
Accusations Denied
FEC Attorney Joseph M. Kilt
ner denied that the FEC had
made any accusations against
Mr.. Lamb, or that either he or
the Commission wanted to
"penalize Mr.. Lamb for his
beliefs or activities"
At issue in the frequently
stormy proceedings which began
last September is the question
of whether or not Mr.. Lamb
misrepresented associations or
donations in the past in apply
ing for radio-TV licenses.
Just before the low-voiced
question-and-answer exchange
between Mr.. Kittner and Mr..
Lamb ended, Mr.. Kittner con-
fronted Mr.. Lamb with a copy
Of his income tax returns for
1914, 1854 and 1916.

Society for the Protection of the

since been cited as subversive by
the Attorney General.
Affidavit Lists Contributions
Mr.. Lamb had previously testi-
fled that he had not knowingly"
made any contributions to the
LID. He had said that he had

the American Society for the
Protection Of the Foreign Born.

Mr.. Kittner than produced an
affidavit, which had been pre-
pared by Mr.. Lambs secretary,
Cecile Huebner, and submitted
to the Federal Communications
Commission. 1t purported to
show contributions made by
Lamb to associations and causes
during 1944-1954. The contri-
buttons to the American So
ciety for the Protection of the
Foreign-Born and to the Inter-
national Labor Defense we're not

The Chinese Reds have claimed
that the United States was hold
