Dear Sirs,

I have seen the following title, original edition of the 1950's [i.e. 1980 (?) -- as listed].

Ceplair, Larry. Title The inquisition in Hollywood : politics in the film community, 1930-60 / Larry Ceplair and Steven Englund. Publisher Urbana, Ill. : University of Illinois Press, 2003. Description xxix, 544 p. : ill. ; 21 cm. ISBN 0252071417

The text contains a spate of Marxian propaganda falsehoods, practically libelous of the U.S. and its institutions.

That text has apparently been reissued. On the other hand, I have tried to see some texts by an author who clearly had disagreed with this society's having been taken over by a gang of ruffians sent (or directed) from the then Bolshevik USSR [cf. below].

I do not suppose that the House Committees or other anti-Communists were infallible, perhaps far from it.

It may be worthy of noticing that any party who would have disagreed with the existing order in the USSR of those times would almost certainly be shot over there.

Yet the lying whining about "blaklisting" in the US is being republished while the more likely true materials are not ; and are missing in the libraries.

" The Communists, of course, have a penchant for rewriting history after the fact. "
W.R. Kintner with J.Z. Kornfeder, The New Frontier of War
Chicago : Henry Regnery, 1962, page 181.

It looks like the Red spectre is still haunting. Please consider this.

Regards,
W. Paul Tabaka
