Emmet Lavery, President of the Screenwriters Guild of Los Angeles, is questioned by the HUAC members

Questioning of the President of the Screenwriters Guild of Los Angeles, Mr. Emmet Lavery, by members of the House un-American Activities Committee, including J Parnell Thomas and Robert Stripling, in October 1947. Mr. Lavery speaks into a microphone and answers questions of the Committee. He opens by saying he will break the suspense and states that he is not a Communist and has never been one (even before he is asked.) This elicits laughter from those present in the hearing. In testimony, Emmet Lavery states that he is "a Democrat who in my youth was a Republican, and if the Committee wants to know why I changed..." He is cutoff with response "No we don't want to know..." and again there is laughter. Mr Lavery concedes that there are probably communists in the Guild, but he doesn't know who, by name. He expresses concern that the questioning by the Committee may negatively affect the Guild elections that are approaching. He states that no individuals have control of the Guild. The Committee asks if Trumbo (Dalton Trumbo of the Hollywood Ten) has control of the Guild. Lavery says no. Lavery states that he agrees with J Edgar Hoover of the FBI that it would be wrong to outlaw the Communist party, especially in a time of peace.
