Pauling said today the House Committee on Un American Activities had chos en the Christmas season "to crucify" a group of woman peace workers. The atomic scientist said the House committee's inves tigation of peace organiza tions was "an outrageous vio lation of the right of freedom of speech guaranteed by our Constitution." He said the committee was guilty of "a shameful action" in investigating to determine whether Communists had in filtrated a group called Wom en Strike for Peace. Four women memr ;rs from metropolitan New York were questioned by the committee Wednesday. AH refused on constitutional grounds to say whether they were Commu nists. The inquiry continued today with Mrs. Dagmar Wil son, Washington, D.C., house wife and founder of the wom en's group, as the chief wit ness. Pauling, in a telegram to Mrs. Wilson's group, said the committee investigation was an "oppressive action in order to frighten the American peo ple into silence about their opposition to the dangers of militarism." "This festering sore in our government has appropriate ly selected the Christmas sea son to crucify the women of Women Strike for Peace' who are working for peace on earth and good will toward men,'' he said. Pauling marched in a picket line with the women outside the White House last April. His telegram, signed jointly with his wife, was sent from his Pasadena, Calif., home.
