Seattle (U.R) A subcom mittee of the House Un-American Activities committee ended it current phase of investigation into alleged "political subver sion and propaganda" here Fri day. Rep. Clyde Doyle (D-Calif.), subcommittee chairman, termed the investigation "one of the most extensive ever conducted" and said there was need to "strengthen all laws" dealing with subversion. Doyle said the subcommittee would confer with the full Un,,r. .nn,miHa rA K?,f tho two agencies would decide what eln or legislation to recommend to j Congress. Hits 'Deceit' I Doyle complained bitterly 1 about "deceit and evasion" prac-1 ticed by the witnesses and sug gested their invocation of the amendments was often "subver sive." Concluding two days of hear ings here, Doyle said testimony indicated the American Com mittee for Protection of the For eign Born and its regional organ izations were "controlled and di rected by the Communist party." He said the Seattle bank account of the committee was controlled by "Communist func tionaries." Evade Answers Some 25 witnesses were sub poenaed but most of them invok ed various combinations of the constitutional amendments t o evade answering the subcom mittee's questions. Seattle attorney John Caugh lin, called to testify, asserted the subcommittee had "no legisla tive function whatever." Cauchlin, acquitted of perjury in 1948, refused to testify on grounds of his previous trial. The subcommittee's star wit ness, ex-Communist Barbara Hartle, testified Caughlin was a Communist in 1935. Others Listed Other witnesses who testified Friday were Pearl Castle, Se attle; Lillian Rubicz, Seattle; Milford Sutherland, Seattle; John Dachbach, Portland; Nor man Haaland. Portland; Louise S. Hatten, Seattle; Julia Ruut tila, Astoria, Ore., and Vincent M. Howard, Seattle. Besides Doyle the subcommit tee was composed of Rep. Gor don Scherer (R-Ohio) and Rich ard Arens, committee counsel. Mrs. Ruuittila, an Astoria, Ore., woman who identified her self as "a housewife and writer" told a subcommittee she "dis approved ot Kussian action in Hungary. Mrs. Julia Ruuttila was one of the first witnesses of the day. about articles she allegedly wrote in Communist newspapers criticizing actions of the Ameri can government. Asked if she had written any thing about the Russian action in Hungary, Mrs. Ruuttila an swered "no." She was asked if she approv ed of those actions by Rep. Gor don Scherer, (R-Ohio). Richard Arens, committee counsel, repeatedly asked Mrs. Ruuttila if she had any apolo gies for various articles Arens claimed she had written under several pen names. She did not answer those ques tions or say whether ihe was a Communist. Invokes 5th Amendment Mrs. Ruuttila invoked the Fifth Amendment when Arens said, "I put it to you as a fact, that you were actively identi fied a few years ago with a Communist cell in Portland and that you are one of the princi pal propagandists in the North west for the Communist con spiracy. "If it's not true, deny it under oath," he said. Asked if she had submitted articles to the Daily People's World, West Coast Communist paper, Mrs. Ruuttila invoked the Fifth Amendment and other am endments.
