Witnesses Laughing in Congress

(Original Caption) On the stand before the Dies committee are Agnes Reynolds, college secretary of the American Student Union, and Joseph P. Lash, executive secretary of the American Student Union. Lash readjusts his vocal chords after singing a ditty to the committee. The witness sang a song to illustrate union activities. He sang, If you see an un-American looking far and near. Alcholize with Martin Dies and he will disappear. Acting Chairman Representative Starnes of Alabama, after the audience laughed, said, I don't think you can carry a tune.
