League of American Writers (view source)
Revision as of 21:08, August 8, 2009
, 21:08, August 8, 2009create
In three of its Reports, the [[Dies Committee]] of the [[U.S. House of Representatives]] cited the '''League of American Writers''' as a Communist front organization. "The League of American Writers, founded un der Communist auspices in 1935...in 1939...began openly to follow the [[Communist Party]] line as dictated by a foreign policy of the [[Soviet Union]]."
In the early days of [[World War II]] [[Franklin Roosevelt]]'s Attorney General [[Francis Biddle]] stated that the overt activities of the League of American Writers during the [[Communazi era]] and immediately following German Chancellor [[Adolf Hitler]]'s violation of that pact left little doubt of the fact that the League was controlled by the Soviet Union. [[Truman]] Attorney General [[Thomas Clark]], in his letters to the Loyalty Review Board, cited the League as [[subversive]] and [[Communist]] and it was redeignated on April 27 1953 pursuant to Executive Order No. 10450.
