Mr. O’Connell. There was some discussion about what kind of a job they were doing and what organization it was, and so on. I am pretty sure the grant was not continued.
Mr. Tavenner. It was cited as subversive and Communist by Attorney General Tom Clark on December 4, 1947, and the citation by the Special Committee on Un-American Activities report March 29, 1944, reads as follows:
Cited as the new name under which the Young Communist League operates and which also largely absorbed the American Youth Congress.
Mr. O’Connell. Do you know when the grant was made?
Mr. Tavenner. No; I do not. It would be between 1942 and 1951, but I don’t know the specific date.
Mr. O’Connell. I can remember a discussion about the grant, and I think you will find—I could be wrong, but I think there was only one grant made, and it was discontinued.
Mr. Tavenner. Were grants totaling $6,500 made to the California Labor School?
Mr. O’Connell. Yes; I don’t know whether that total amount is correct, but I know a grant was made to the California Labor School.
Mr. Tavenner. This organization was cited by Attorney General Tom Clark on June 1, 1948, as a subversive and Communist organization.
Mr. O’Connell. Do you know when the grant was made?
