A SAFE House Seeks To Expose Hate Groups WASHINGTON 11 The House Un-American Activities Committee says It will seek to expose "var ious and sundry 'hate groups as well as Communists. . The committee said In Its an nual report to Congress such or ganizations often use "ultrapat- rlotic names and devices" but spread "dissension, discord, big otry and intolerance." Targets are "individuals or groups of religious and racial minorities," the com mittee added. The report, made public Satur day, said evidence Indicated the presence of a few Communists or sympathizers among clergymen and educators, but it attested to the loyalty of the great majority of Americans In those fields. And, while the committee said it has not conducted and does not intend to conduct an "investiga tion of subversive infiltration of the clergy" and has never probed the subjects taught or teaching methods of schools, it added that no Individual enjoys "Immunity from Investigation, regardless of his rank or calling." Statements last year by Rep. Velde (R-Ill), committee chair man, which were taken to mean he might probe for Communists among the clergy, stirred up con siderable criticism. Velde said he meant only that individual clergy men might be investigated if the committee received information linking them to subversion. The report said "a minute num ber of c a s e-hardened Commu nists" and sympathizers had in filtrated the clergy and some clergymen had been careless in allowing their names to be used by suspect groups. But It added that such cases represented only "a minute percentage of the hun dreds of thousands of loyal, patrio tic men of uie ciotn."
