According to his son, Elliot Scoville Krafsur, "S. S. Krafsur was 'uncooperative' with the [[House Committee on Un-American Activities|House Un-American Activities Committee]] in 1956 because they only wanted him to name publicly people he might have thought were communists or communist supporters."<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Samuel_Krafsur Elliot Scoville Krafsur, August 31, 2005</ref> Krafsur resigned from his toy job on the Saturday before his testimony on April 17, 1956, when he was invited to testify under oath for Subcommittee To Investigate the Administration of the Internal Security Act and Other Internal Security Laws. Krafsur took the Fifth when asked if he had ever used another name or belonged to the Communist Party. He did state that after December 1940 and while working for TASS he was not a member of the Communist Party. Apart from the questions relating to his being a Communist he answered all the questions put to him and was far from being uncooperative, at least at this meeting, as his son suggested. He was asked no questions as to who he believed was or was not a party member.<ref>Scope of Soviet Activity in the United States: Hearing Before the Subcommittee to Investigate the Administration of the Internal Security Act and Other Internal Security Laws of the Committee of the Judiciary, United States Senate, 84th Congress Second Session [85th Congress First Session] Transcript, April 17, 1956</ref>
