-Communist groups, which emerged both in the pre-war and the post-war list, are marked by one "". In the meantime some trade unions communists had excluded other openly communist groups from their membership lists, were dissolved, partially also by government resolution. Although [[Roosevelt]] had forbidden hearing messages between the Soviet Union and America and/or Canada, the secret services did not adhere to it. The [[Venona project]] revealed massive inifiltration of American institutions, government, social and political life by operatives of a foreign government.  The fact that someone was a member at a federation, a committee or a Soviet group of supports, did not mean still for a long time that this person was an active communist or a feeler gauge. Thousands of people with an inclination for [[liberal]] thinking became members, without being or the ideas of communism support thereby communists. The variety of these groups shows however completely clearly that Moscow infinitely set up many traps for the harmless ones and the sympathizers, in order to then recruit into the communist underground from these groups.
