U. S. House Will Print Radical Speaker List

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The House of Representatives yesterday protested the delay in printing and publicly distributing a list of 57 "radical speakers."

The list, drawn up by the House Internal Security Committee, cited 57 campus speakers as supporters of militant, revolutionary, or Communist organizations, and stated that 142 speeches grossed $102,668 to promote "revolutionary activity."

Yesterday's House resolution, which passed 301-55, ordered the House superintendent of documents to print and distribute the report and prohibits any act that "obstructs or prevents" this from being done.

Rep. Richard H. Ichord (D-Mo.) accused U. S. District Judge Gerhard A. Gesell of suppressing a legislative report. He called on the House to "assert and defend" Congress' power over its own business.

"I have never considered this report to be of earthshaking significance," Ichord said, "But the decision of Judge Gesell is one of earthshaking significance."
