During the 82nd United States Congress, the House of Representatives voted to enact the Select Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations and Comparable Organizations. Named after its chair Edward E. Cox, the committee during the congressional session is known as the Cox Committee.
Investigation and report
The committee in 1952 sent all major foundations questionnaires which requested information about their operations and activities.[1] Although it conducted hearings which amount to hundreds of pages in transcripts, the Cox Committee's investigation was not in-depth.
Cox died in December 1952 before the committee's report was released.[1] The final report contained little substance and did not declare major foundations to have been subversive.
