The way the members of HUAC circa 1947 have been described, you'd expect to find the ravings of some redneck racist and anti-Semitic yahoos asking Santa Claus if he was a Communist because he wore a red suit! You really won't find that here. The "Inquisitor"s arguments are rational and well thought out, and I really don't see much racism here. What we now know from the Venona transcripts should also be taken into account.
