Massachusetts' Joint Rules Committee deferred action Tuesday on outlawing the Communist Party this year. The Committee urged that the problem of controlling "subversion" get a year's study by the Committee on Constitutional Law, which would then report back to the state legislature.

The Joint Rules Committee's recommendation must now go before the House and Senate. State Senator Charles J. Innes, head of the committee, yesterday told the CRIMSON that he thought the House might attempt to substitute a bill immediately outlawing Communists for his committee's proposal.

Considered Plans

Among the plans considered by the Joint Rules group were loyalty oaths for Massachusetts lawyers, fines or heavy prison sentences for Bay State residents convicted of being subversive.

One proposed measure suggested life imprisonment for people convicted of membership in subversive organizations.
