Mr. O’Connell. No; I can’t——
Mr. Tavenner. Our information is that the total amount advanced to the Pacific Northwest Labor School was $11,500.
Mr. O’Connell. I thought you meant money outside of the Marshall Foundation.
Mr. Tavenner. No.
Mr. O’Connell. I am pretty sure grants were made to the Seattle Labor School for 2 or 3 years, I don’t remember which.
Mr. Tavenner. In fact, it would have closed its doors but for the financial assistance given it through you?
Mr. O’Connell. As a matter of fact, when the last grant was made it had closed its doors and the grant was made to pay up debts and salaries and things of that kind that were—incurred loans.
Mr. Tavenner. Salaries to Communist Party teachers?
Mr. O’Connell. I don’t know. Daschbach’s salary for one.
Mr. Tavenner. He has been identified by a number of witnesses as an active member of the Communist Party.
