I have access to the full ''Reports of the Subversive Activities Control Board'', GPO, 1966, but not until next week. That should have a full accounting of the AYC & Joe Lash. [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 18:05, 3 July 2009 (EDT)

::Lash was forced out of the ASU in Dec 1939 but remained on the 4-person executive committe of the AYC for another year or so, always arguing the anti-Communist position and always getting outvoted. [[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 21:11, 5 July 2009 (EDT)

::on the G-2 business, Lash covers it in detail in one of his books, a unit of Army Intelligence (G-2) was spying on Eleanor and taped a hotel meeting in Illinois between ER and Lash--and then told FDR about it. he was livid that the Army was spying on his wife (and perhaps on FDR too). FDR ordered the G2 unit disbanded and Lash sent to the Pacific (or Alaska).
