Mr. Miller. The answer that you want from me is whether there was any direction as far as I was concerned, as to where to get employment. Is that, as I understand, the intent of the question?
Mr. Wheeler. Yes.
Mr. Miller. At no time, to the best of my recollection, was I directed to go anywhere to work or to do any specific thing, as I can recall it now.
Mr. Velde. Do you have knowledge of any attempt by the Communist Party to infiltrate the Boeing plant?
Mr. Miller. I have no specific knowledge which I can testify as to facts, sir. I assume that is what you want, only things I know to be fact.
Mr. Velde. Yes.
Mr. Wheeler. Did you ever hold an office in the Aero Mechanics Union?
Mr. Miller. Yes. I was at one time a shop steward, at one time a shop committeeman, and, if memory serves me right, I was president of one of the locals during the war. I am not too clear on whether that was president or vice president, sir.
Mr. Wheeler. To your knowledge, were there any other members of the Communist Party in the Aero Mechanics Union?
Mr. Miller. I do not know with any degree of certainty anyone at Boeing while I was there who might have been members of the Communist Party. There was certainly speculation or perhaps reason to assume they were. However, I would like to confine my testimony to facts, and I do not know any to be a fact.
