In Tydings Committee testimony, Louis Budenz contends that Joseph Stalin aims to conquer the US
MS Louis Budenz, former Communist and current anti-Communist, sits before microphones on table during his testimony before the Senate Subcommittee on the Investigation of Loyalty of State Department Employees, a/k/a the Tydings Committee; SOT: "I have no interest whatsoever in a partisan way in this controversy. Indeed, I would appeal for a bipartisan - strong bipartisan policy against Communism. That is my position, it has always been my position"; " ... Communism, which is the greatest danger that the United States has ever confronted in its history. I know that because I could...produce documentary evidence of Stalin's iron determination to conquer the United States"; [holds up newspaper with headline and story about Joseph Stalin] "this is the organ of the Cominform, coming into our country among many of the other seditious publications advising the Communists how they should proceed"; [disingenuously denies bringing this up "in order to color my testimony otherwise"] "...this evidence could be multiplied a thousand fold in the declaration by Stalin that they are expecting ... the world's Soviet dictatorship shall be established"; "It is solely, then, in the effort to combat this determination by Stalin to conquer the United States and establish the world soviet dictatorship that I have come before this committee and for which I stand" / Note: exact day not known; audio not synchronized
