However that mav be, the Communist pleaders r in behalf of fellow travelers and party members avoid any factual ref erence about how of this came about. The curtain rose in October, 1947, when the House Committee on Un-American Activities began an inquiry into the infiltration of the mov ing picture industry by Com munists. Producers Jack L. Warner, Sam Wood and Louis B. Mayer testified "to the presence and activity in the industry of Com munists, fellow travelers or un American persons.
