secret members of the Communist Party whose task it was to shape State Department policy and put across the official Communist Party line on the Far East. More than 60 officials of the IPR have already been identified under oath as members of the Communist Party.

Louis Budenz, former editor of the Daily Worker, has testified that while he was editor of the Worker he was officially advised that a well-organized Communist cell was operating in the Institute of Pacific Relations and that the task of this Communist cell was to "use the Institute of Pacific Relations to influence foreign policy."

Photostats of letterheals showing Jessup's affiliation with six organizations officially cited as Communist fronts.

Attached to each of the following letterheads,

showing Jessup's connection with the Communist front, is the official citation on the front by either the Attorney General or legislative committees.

An organization officially cited as a Communist front is so designated because the attorney General or legislative committees, after thorough investigation, conclude that the organisation is controlled by

Communists, serves Communist causes, and does the work of the Communist Party.

Even the State Department's own Loyalty Yardstick states that membership in or association with Communist front groups makes an individual a security risk.

It should be noted in connection with Communist Front No. 6 --the China Aid Council

that Jessup

admitted association with this front group in 1947 -

five years after it had been officially and publicly

cited as a front for and doing the work of the Communist

Party.
