COMMUNISM IN MOTION-PICTURE INDUSTRY 171 vestigators of this committee a list of names of those to whom you have referred? Mr. Hayden. Yes, I have. Mr. Tavenner. That is all. Mr. Wood. By that I understand that the list of names you have given the investigators are in addition to those you have named before this committee. Mr. Hayden. Yes, they are. Mr. Wood. And do I understand those names have been furnished the investigators by you only upon some conjecture you have that they may have been members of the party ? Mr. Hayden. My feeling is that the only ones I know to have been members are those active in the cell and Karen Morley. Any others would have to be conjecture. Mr. Wood. That is not entirely responsive to my question. Do I understand that the list of names you have furnished the investigators, that you have no knowledge as to whether they have ever been mem- bers of the Communist Party or not ? Mr. Hayden. That is true. I do not know. Mr. Wood. But your purpose in furnishing the list of names to the investigators was that by proper investigation on the part of the in- vestigators of the committee and the committee itself, that their con- nection with the Communist Party might be revealed with ref erence to some of them ? Mr. Hayden. I think if they were asked it would be developed. Mr. Wood. Was that your purpose in furnishing to the staff of this committee that list of names ? Mr. Hayden. It was. Mr. Wood. And no other reason ? Mr. Hayden. No, sir. Mr. Doyle. May I ask one more question: Did you testify that Karen Morley was a member of the cell ? Mr. Hayden. She was not a member of the cell. Mr. Wood. The committee will adjourn until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. (Thereupon, at 1: 15 p. m. on Tuesday, April 10, 1951, an adjourn- ment was taken until Wednesday, April 11,1951, at 10 a. m.)
