CLAYTON W. FOUNTAIN

One bright and energetic [Communist] party member working as an educational director or editor in a strong local union is worth a dozen members occupied with the lesser duties of settling grievances …. Such a spot gives a party member an outlet through which to pour a steady stream of Communist propaganda.

Our boys [the communists] not only attended all the union educational classes … but also took lessons in speaking from Party experts. We were also trained in the fine points of parliamentary trickery … We raised points of order, points of information, divisions of the house, objection to consideration of the question, amendments to amendments, and appeals from the decision of the chair in endless and swift succession.
