Cowley; Countee Cullen; Martha Dodd; Theodore Dreiser; Dashiell
Hammett; Lillian Hellman; Arthur Kober; Oliver LaFarge; Clifford
Odets; George Seldes; George Soule; Charles Erskine; Scott Wood;
Rockwell Kent ; Herman Shumlin ; and Dr. Max Yergan.

The Daily Worker for December 19, 1940, carried the following,
which we quote in part :

Immediate dismissal of charges against Sam Adams Darcy,
Communist leader, was urged upon Governor Culbert Olson of Cali-
fornia today by 165 nationally prominent representatives of every
field of public life.

Darcy was recently extradited by California authorities to
Pennsylvania, where he was state chairman of the Communist Party.
He faces up to 14 years imprisonment for a minor inaccuracy in his
registration as a voter in California in 1934.

Charging that Darcy is being persecuted because he represents
a minority party, signers of the appeal declare ' * This constitutes a
violation of the principle of equality before the law. ' '

* * * They wrote * * * ' ' We urge you to dismiss the charges
against Mr. Sam Adams Darcy. "

Randolph Smith was one of the signers of this petition together with
such outstanding Communists as Oswald Garrison Villard, Dr. Harry F.
Ward, Rockwell Kent, Theodore Dreiser, Vito Marcantonio, Herman

Shumlin, Donald Ogden Stewart, Dr. Thomas Addis, Albert Maltz, and
many others.

During the Stalin-Hitler pact, Randolph Smith, together with
Bishop Francis J. McConnell, Dr. Bella B. Dodd, George Seldes, Vito
Marcantonio, Rockwell Kent, Prof. Margaret Schlauch, Rabbi Michael
Alper, Prof. Robert K. Speer, Rev. Arthur T. Goold, Edwin Berry Bur-
gum, and Arthur Kallet, sponsored a Greenwich Village Mass Meeting
For Peace. The meeting was held in public school No. 3, Grove Street,
corner Hutchins Street and New York Street.

Participation in the Communist policy to support the Stalin-Hitler
pact may be said to be the acid test for both Communists and Communist
fellow-travelers.

In July of 1946 a "cultural" congress was held in Moscow. Norman
Corwin, writer and radio commentator, was the "honored guest." He
presented the Moscow International Convention with two recordings
from the American-Soviet Music Society. Following this convention in
Moscow renewed activity in the recording field for Communist causes
and objectives became apparent. A few of the fronts which resulted are
as follows: Stage for Action, Young People's Records, New Theatre,
Trade Union Theatre, People's Artists, Cultural Folk Dance Group,
Theodore Dreiser Work Shop, Modern Culture Club, Carver Cultural
Council, Cultural Council, Dramatic Work Shop, Contemporary The-
atre, Provisional Committee for Democracy in Radio, International
Programs, Jefferson Chorus, Philadelphia Stage for Action, California
Stage for Action, Contemporary Writers, People's Orchestra, People's
Chorus, Book Find Club, Challenge Records, Charter Records, Freiheit,
Gesang Sarein, People's Artists, Inc., Committee for the Defense of
Education, Keynote Recordings, Inc., People's Songs, People's Radio
Foundation, and the American-Russian Music Corporation.

The Compass Record Company specializes in Soviet recordings.

People's Songs, Inc., was incorporated January 31, 1946, in New
York City. Among the directors and incorporators are Herbert Haufrect,
Peter Seeger, Lee Hays, Daniel Lapidus, and Robert Claiborne. Joe
Brodsky is the attorney for the corporation.

The board of directors of People's Songs, Inc., include the follow-
ing : B. A. Bodkin, Tom Glazer, Horace Grenell, Woody Guthrie, John
Hammond, Jr., Herbert Haufrect, Bess Hawes, Waldemar Hille, Paul
Kent, Millard Lampell, Earl Robinson, Bob Russell, Walter Lowenfels,
Kenneth Spencer, Alec Wilder, and Palmer Weber. Peter Seeger is the
director of the organization. Lee Hays is the executive director and
Bernard Asbel is the editor.

The Board of Sponsors of People's Songs, Inc., include Sam Bar-
low, Leonard Bernstein, Marc Blitzstein, Aaron Copeland, Norman Cor-
win, Lincoln Kirstein, Larry Adler, Moe Asch, C. B. Baldwin, Carl
Carmer, Oscar Hammerstein II, E. Y. Harburg, Judy Holliday, Lena
Home, John Houseman, Berle Ives, David Capp, Alain Locke, Dorothy
Parker, Paul Robeson, Herman Sobel, Louis Untermeyer, Sam Wana-
maker, Josh White, and Lila Bell Pitts. The Advisory Committee
includes Rockwell Kent and Michael Gold.

Needless to say all of the productions of People's Songs, Inc., follow
the Communist Party line as assiduously as do the people behind the
organization.

Serge de Touloff is the manager of "The World In Music" at 1119
North Hicks Avenue, in Los Angeles. "Russia in Phonograph Records"
is featured on de Touloff 's advertisement. The Russian records were
formerly offered for sale in the lobby of the Grand and Esquire Theatres
in Los Angeles. This information is crossed off of de Touloff 's card.

from the Communist Part}^ line in any field.
