Investigation of Communist activities in Seattle, Wash., Area, Hearings, Part 2

by United States. Congress. House. Committee on Un-American Activities

Mr. Wheeler. Mr. Chairman, I have no further questions at this time. However, I would like to recommend that the witness’ subpena be continued.

Mr. Moulder. All right.

Do you have a question, Mr. Velde?

Mr. Velde. Yes.

I believe you said you got out of the Army in 1948. Is that correct?

Mr. Miller. To the best of my knowledge, sir.

Mr. Velde. What prompted you to get out of the Communist Party when you did?

Mr. Miller. To the best of my knowledge, the party dropped me for inactivity, sir.

Mr. Velde. You never wrote a letter disavowing membership in the Communist Party then?

Mr. Miller. No, sir, I never did.
