The Special Co.:1t'tee on Un ....ric8.Jl Activities Authorized to Inves tigate Nazi Propaganda Acti"rlties and Certain Other Propaganda Activities, was constituted pur8U8.l'1t to House Resolution 198, 73rd Congress, adopted by the House ot Representatives on March 20, 1934. House Resolution 198, 73rd Congress, introduced on January 3, 1934, by Representative Sall1el Dickstein, ot New York, prorided in part as tollowsl
Resolved, '!'hat the Speaker of the House ot R.presentati'9815 be, and he i8 hereby, authorized to appoint a special committee to be cOJlposed ot seven Member"s tor the purpose ot conducting an inwstigation of (1) the extent, character, and objects of Nazi propaganda activities in the United States, (2) the dif fusion within the United States ot subversi'98 propaganda that is instigated from toreign countries and attacks the principle ot the tora ot government as guaranteed by our Constitution, and (3) all other questions in relation thereto that would aid Congress in any necessary remedial legislation.
On A.pril 5, 1934, the Speaker ot the House, the Hon. Henry '1'. Rainey, acting in accordance with the resolutioa, appointed )(esBrs. John W )(cCor.ack, ot Massachusetts, (chairman) J S&llUel Dickstein, ot New York; Charles lra.er, ot California; '!'hOES A. Jenkins, of Ohio; J. Will Taylor, ot Rennessee; and U. S. Guyer, ot Kansas, ...mers ot the special COlI mittee. The COIIId.ttee naaed Representative Samuel Dickstein to act as their nce chairun and designated the Hon. ThOMS W. Hardwick, ot Georgia, to serve as cOllllld.ttee counsel.
The considerations which hact persuaded the Hou .. ot Representatives to authorize the investigation ot Nazi and other propaganda actin. ties ....re described bT the chairman of the cODDlittee, Representative John W. JlcCoraack, in a stateMnt _de at the beginning ot the tirst session of the public hearings ot the cOlllllittee, held in Washington, D. C., on June 5, 1934; -.1 period ot profound and protracted depression has .£01- lowed in the wake ot the World War. It bas been world-wide. More than 15 years have .lapsed since tbe ending ot that war, but its blighting etfect upon the economic lif. and upon the IIOrale of practically all the people ot the ... orld still erlsts. During such a period ot unrest, discontent with the existing oreier, and a wid.spread agitation tor changes in the form, character, and substance ot governMnts has spread over the ...orld, overturning established goverraents and resulting in Il8I'l)" n.... and radical experiaents in goverDllent.
tlIn Europe, almost without exception, govermnental systems that BoughtCaplin to guarantee the rights and& liberties Drysdale ot the citizens were ------overthrown and either COIIIIlUIdIllll or FasciBJll was installed. In either instance, whether the IlOvement was to the right or to the lett, despotism. supplanted freedoa under parlia.ntar.T govemaent and the rights and lib erties ot the people perished. FreedOil ot the press, treedom of speech, and treedOil ot assemblage ware denied to the people under either 8)"atem. In these circUJI8tances, with so large a percentage ot its population of foreign, usualq European, origin, the Hou .. of Representatives bas keenl)" sensed and tu1l7 realised the danger of rtciou.s propaganda of foreign origin aimed at the subversion of those tundamenta1 principles upon which our Constitution rests and seeks to investigate the extent and origin of such propaganda, with the ultillate object of protecting this countr,. and its people trom its diesemina tion."
In the debate o'ftr House Resolution 196, 73rd Congress, on the floor ot the House ot Representatives, Representative Samuel Dickstein character ized the objectiTe ot the cOlllldttee ae tol101JSI "This special investi gating cOJllllittee should seek to accOilplish three priaary' objects: First, ascertain the tacts about _thode of introduction into this coun'tr7 of destructive, subftrsive propaganda Originating from foreign countries; second, ascertain tacta about organizations in this country that see. to be cooperating to spread this alien propaganda through their ...b8rship in this ccnmtry; third, study and recommend to the House the appropriate legislation which My correct existing tacts and tend to prevent the recurrence ot a eiJdlar condition in the tuture.·
Pursuant to House ResolutiOD 196, 73rd Congress, the cOllUlittee con ducted public and exeoutiva hearings intermittent17 between April 26, 1934, and December 29, 1934, in Washington, D. C., New York, N. Y., Chicago, Ill., Los Angeles, Calif., Ashertlle, N. C., and Newark, N. J. The committee examined bundreds ot witnesses; i ts record~:ot testim~ "01U1ted to aore than 4,300 pages. Evidence was taken b7 the cOlllllittee concerning indirtduals and organizations who worked to establiBh in the United States policies followed by' the regimes ot Nazi Geru.D7, Fascist Ital7, and Communist Russia.
hong the persons and organizations investigated by' the cODDDittee to discover eT.i.dence ot Nazi activities, were Fritz Gies1b1, Kurt Georg Wilhelm Luedicke, Heinz Spanknoebe1, George S)"lftster Viereck, Dr. otto H. F. Vollb8hr, Reinhold Walter, certain ._bers of the Geraan dip1ou.tic corps, r.spresentatives of Geraan ste.ship lines, Friends ot New Germ&n)", Si1ftr Shirt. ot A._rica, Order ot '76, and A_rican Vigilante Intelligence Federation. The Committee gaV8~8peoial attention to the organization and activities ot the Friends of New GerJl&lly and the Silftr Shirts ot Amrica. Evidence was adduced before the committee showing
Caplin-- &~-:'----', Drysdale--
2 that the conditions of membership in the Friends of New Germany 1r8re tithe S8ae as membership in the National Socialist Ger1llll Labor Party; that its principles were the same; that it permitted only those of so-called 'Aryan blood,' born in Germany or of GerEn descent, to jOin, and that it was fashioned entirely along the lines ot the Nazi Party of GerJlaIlYJ that it was receiving and recognized orders trom Germany; that it was for all practical purposes, if not in fact, the A_rican section ot the Nazi IIOve_nt in (lermany ••• " Evidence taken by the committee disclosed that the Silver Shirts of America, modeled after the Storm Troops of GerE1'ly, were founded by' William Dudley Pelley early in ·1933, wi th headquarters in Asheville, North Carolina; that Pelley had estab lished chapters of "Sil'98r Shirts" throughout the United States, over which he exercised the powers of a dictator; that Pelley had _de over tures to Nazi leaders and groups ill the United States, besides esploying an 81Iis&ary to certain officials of Gel"Ell steamship lines engaged in turthering Nazi aills ~ the United states; that may "Silver Shirts· in San Diego bad been armed; that GoverrDllS11t ammunition from North Island had co_ into tbeir bands by wrongful means; and that the "Silver Shirts" were utiliziag a target range for firearm.s practice and maneuftrs. In the course of the committee's investigation of Nazi activities, William Dudley Pelley and his adjutant, Robert Summernlle, were convicted in Buncombe County, North Carolina, of the felony of selling stock without authorization and registration, in violation of the Blue Sk;y Law of that State. '!he collapse of the "Silver Shirts" legion ensued. From the evidence in its record, the committee concluded that through strenuous efi"orts, progress had been JIlade in rooting Nazi ideology in the United States, but that the exposure of this activity by' the committee had checked the progress and had, in addition, launched a disintegration of the move _nt furthering its advancement.
Aaong those furnishing evidence to the committee on Fascist activities was llajor General S.dley D. Butler, who testified as to converstaions with one Gerald C. lIacGuire, in which the latter was alleged to have suggested the formation of a Fascist ~ under the leadership ot General Butler. Evidence was sutmitted to the committee tending to show Fascist activities by an Italian vice consul at Detroit, Michigan. The cOJlllDittee, tald..ng cognizance of activities of organizations which seemed to be guided by' Fascist principles, conducted a probe ot these organisatiOns, finding that their activities were making no headway. Tn the course of its inquiry, the cOllUldttee tound only isolated cases ot Fascist activity, and concluded that efforts to implant Fascist ideology in the United States were lI&k:ing no progress.
For the eIi.covery ot eTidence concerning COIIIII1Ullist activities, the committeeCaplin took the testimony of& several Drysdaleleaders of the COIIllIlUl1ist Party . :1
3 in the United states, including Earl ~der, general secretary to the COIIBlUDist Party, and James W. Ford, a JI8:aber of the executiTe committee ot that party. In addition, the committee conducted a series ot public hearings in December 1934, at Washington, D. e., at which representatives of organizations and agencies that had been stud;ying and iDftstigaing Communist activities presented state.ents ot their "findings accompanied with recOllDl8Ddations tor remedial action. The findings ot the cOJlllllittee concerning COJIIlUnist activities paralled those of the Special Committee to Investigate CoJllllllUlist Activities in the United States, constituted by the House ot Representatifts in the Seventy-first Congress, with Repre sentative Hamilton Fish, Jr., of New York, as chairman. The latter CODl llittee reported to the House of RepresentatiTes, on January 11, 1931, that the "principles and a1II8 of COJIDlUllists in Moscow and COJIIJIUIlists in Berlin, Paris, London, Hew York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, and ~ekin are the NlIB; they stand on the __ platfora and advocate the sue principles, and all take their orders tro. the COIIlDIllnist International, with headquarters in Xoscow, and obey them implicitly;" and that the ultimate and final objective of COIIUIUIli_ is to establish "one world union of soviet socialist republics. with the capital at Koscow." (H. Rept. 2290, 1lst Congress, 3rd session.)
The committee's record. of information and data on Nazi, FaSCist, and COIJIlIUllist activities was deriwd largely trom. the testiDloDT and exhibits received at public and eDoutiva hearings; trom. the findings ot the statt ot coDDlittee investigators; and t1"01l intoraation either TOlllllteered to the committee by citizens and representatives ot private organizations desirous ot aSSisting the cOlllllli ttee' s uncierta.ld.llg or supplied by agencies ot the Federal and State governments in response to requests ot the committee for specific intoru tion. Furtheraore, in obtaining tacts tor the guidance ot its inquiry and in traming recOllD8ndations tor remedial legislative actiOll, the committee had recourse to the results of the work ot two earlier House cOllllittees that had conducted inftstigations ot COIIDlUDist and Nazi activities; n.. ly, the Special COIDlIittee to Investigate Co... lIUIlist Activities in the United States, 7lat Congress, and the subcOJmDittee ot the Committee on Immigration and liaturalization that had Jl8.de an in formal inftstigatiOD of Nazi activities in the latter part of the first session ot the 73rd Congress. Upon a record thus cOllpiled, the committee su~tted its report to the House ot RepresentatiTes on February 15, 1935, embodying the findings and recommendations tor remedial legislation derived trOll its inquiry (H. Rapt. 153, 74th Congress, 1st 88ssion). The testimony taken at the public hearings was published and was su1:nitted to the House as a part ot the report.
