Would you tell us something about the degree of control which the Communists now exercise over some of the more militant leftist groups in this country? There is a feeling that Communist control may have slipped somewhat and that some of these groups are going further than even the Communists would want to go in their demands for destructive action. .Do vou feel there has been a lessening of the Communist influence over, for instance, the more militant youth groups? ' Mr. Hoover. I do not, Mr. Chairman. There has been a steadily inCommunist influence in the New Left creasing degree of hard-cor- e which resulted has movement from a growing acceptance of Marxist-Leninirevolutionary concepts by the leaders of the movement. This is shown, for example, by the fact that the thrust of the movement has gone through four specific stages; namelv: (1) civil rights, (2) antiwar, (3) antiimperialism, ana finally (4) revolutionary communism. Originally, the New Left movement was basically anarchistic in nature and rejected authoritarianism. Ita adherents opposed old-lin- e Communist participation in their activities. Subsequently, however, they welcomed Communist participation and members of old-linhard-cor- e Communist organizations such as the Communist Party U.S.A. and its youth group, the W.E.B. DuBois Clubs of America; the Socialist Workers Party, and its youth group, the Young Socialist Alliance: the Workers World Party, and its youth group, Youth Against. War and Fascism; and the Progressive Labor Party infiltrated the New Left movement extensively. Members of these old-lin- e Communist organizations have had increasing success in their respective efforts to establish their own forms of authoritarian direction and control over the movement. The growing Marxist-Leninirevolutionary imprint becomes apparent in regard to the disorder and disruption instigated by the New Left movement on college campuses. Colleges and universities are described as instruments of repression and tools of the ruling class used to suppress the working class and must be attacked as such. st st of Many School Administrators Encourage Disorders What is needed is more guts on the part of many presidents of the universities and colleges. They should expel the violent militants who take the law into their own hands rather than grant them amnesty for their criminal acts. These militants, under the pretense of the struggle for student rights, deny the majority of students their right to pursue education m a peaceful and orderly atmosphere by their disruptive tactics. Yet, at tne same time many naive school administrators even go so far as to interfere with the prosecution of these militant hoodlums in criminal courts. Many of the school administrators appear unable to distinguish between legitimate protest and unlawful acts and there are far too many bleeding hearts among them whose palliative attitude has served only to magnify the problem by encouraging the escalation of demands and further disorders. munist Mr. Hoover. A Communist-anarchisti- c I notice you call it a Com- group. Mr. Joelsox. My impression of them was that they are against the establishment. They really have no program except to tear down. Would you say they are a Communist organization in the sense we understand communion, that they want to establish a Communist government? Mr. Hoover. Again, it is important to understand that the New Left movement is a splintered movement with varying shades of Marxist-Leninieleideology and differing objectives. The hard-lin- e ment certainly looks to the establishment of a Communist government in this country. Other elements representative of the nihilistic, anarchistic philosophy would be satisfied simply with the destruction of our form of government to be followed by an communal state. Mr. Tolbox. Gus Hall, Communist Party leader, said this is one of the organizations they have going for them. Mr. Hoover. Hall made that statement publicly. Mr. Joelsox. That is very revealing. I think most people regard them as just anarchists without a program. Mr. Hoover. They have definite programs for disorder and disruption in regard to their current revolutionary attacks against colleges. st ill-defin- ed Ml the Communist Party SDS and know they have & program of disruption and denot aware of the fact they had a program beyond was struction, but I that to participate in Communist activities. Mr. Hoover. Oh, yes; they engage in a broad range of Communist revolutionary activities.

AMERICAN When the stability of a Nation depends upon the individual self-g- o vemment of its people they place themselves in peril when they decide to be governed instead by their impulses.

The evidence clearly indicates that the attack against the Mormon Church was initiated and is being planned and directed by the Communist Party and implemented by members of known Communist fronts and others sympathetic to the Communist cause. The majority of the press has failed to present these facta to the American people. We fed that this testimony of Mr. J.
