Dies Lashes Back

NEW YORK--Rep. Martin Dies, Chairman of the House Committee investigating un-American activities, today angrily defended the Committee's action in publishing the list of Government employes associated with the American League for Peace and Democracy.

He said that the Committee had evidence to convict the League in court for failure to register as an agent of a foreign government. Earl Browder, General Secretary of the Communist Party, admitted that the League was a Communist front organization, Dies said.
