Landy's Mother
Answers Questions
Washington (U.R) A grey
haired mother, whose Commu
nist activities cost her son a
naval reserve commission, an
swered " House investigators'
questions today on her alleged
efforts to recruit New Jersey
farm workers for the Communist
party.
Mrs. Deborah Landy, mother
of Merchant Seaman Eugene
Landy, was questioned for two
hours by a House Un-American
Activities Subcommittee at a se
cret session. The chairman said
she testified that only yesterday
did she cancel her subscription
to the Daily Worker Communist
newspaper.
Subcommittee Chairman Fran
cis E. Walter (D-Pa.) said the
Bradley Beach, N. J., widow
"answered every question" put to
her. He said subcommittee mem
bers also questioned her about
her son, Eugene.
Young Landy, a recent honor
graduate of the Merchant Ma
rine Academy at Kings Point,
N. Y., was denied a naval re
serve commission on the
grounds his mother's admitted
past membership in the Commu
nist party made him a security
risk. A Navy board will review
the case.
