This Committee is concerned with the word “subversion”. Basic. to this investigation should be the definition of that word, Webster's Unified Dictionary defines "subversion" as: "To turn upside down, overthrow, destroy. To subvert is to overthrow as if from a foundation; to overturn often implies throwing with force from a base or posi- tion; to overthrow usually denotes complete destruction, as, to overthrow a government;" Some of the witnesses that will appear before this Committee will detail the program of world conquest as drafted by the Marx- Engels-Stalin-Khrushchev combine, They will describe the communist apparatus as it pertains to executing the program of Russian Communism - - - they will substantiate the plan of execu- tion as it pertains to the organization in use of those hundreds of front organizations that have been organized and used by the communists. Most of our people have a past acquaintance with the name of Gerhart Eisler, Stalin's personal representative to the United States, who was to work with the communists to overthrow our government and who later, after conviction, fled to his country on the communist ship "Batory"; Harry Bridges, the West Coast Communist; Alger Hiss, Whittaker Chambers, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and many other notorious communists. The names of Charles Gomillion, Aubrey Williams, Abner W. Berry, Claude C, Williams, Pet K eegar, James A. Dombrowski, and others, whom I will refrain from naming at this time, will crop up during these hearings.
