If so, Where can a copy be obtained?

I haven't verified the particular report cited here, but the source cited in the post is the Congressional Record (most likely quoting an FBI report to HUAC, I'd infer), which can be accessed online for certain dates, though unfortunately this record is old enough you'd have to physically check a Federal Depository Library to obtain a copy:

Thomas Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

3. For what time periods does THOMAS have legislative information? THOMAS has the Congressional Record and full text of legislation available from 1989 (101st Congress) to the present. In addition, THOMAS has summaries (not full text) of legislation are available back to 1973 (93rd Congress). A Century of Lawmaking for a New Nation: U.S. Congressional Documents and Debates 1774-1875 provides a century's worth of congressional proceedings, statutes, and other information. Legislative texts and documents prior to 1989 may be found in print form at Federal Depository Libraries. You can locate a library at this site by either state or area code. Legislation is eventually codified in the U.S. Code, which may be found in several locations other than the one given here.

One other place that type of information can be obtained is from the annual reports archived here:

Records of the United States House of Representatives

233.25 RECORDS OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON INTERNAL SECURITY AND ITS PREDECESSORS 1938-75 2,301 lin. ft.

233.25.1 Records of the Special Committee on Un-American Activities (1938-45)

233.25.2 Records of the House Committee on Un-American Activities (1945-69) and the House Committee on Internal Security (1969-75)

Annual reports on Communist activity were also filed with the state equivalents of HUAC and SISS--for example, a few are online here:

Online Archive of California: Texts > Free Speech Movement Archives > Government Documents

The Lusk Report's second volume appendix is also a good resource for primary source documents summarizing Communist Party goals:

The Lusk Committee: A Guide to the Records of the Joint Legislative Committee to Investigate Seditious Activities

All well and good but was the primary source for the Dr. Evilesque comments in the "Goals>" Now, as a I said, an entry in the Congressional Record is meaningless per se.

Any wacko congresscritter can put anything they want in "extended remarks" (where I suspect this came from. Skousen seems like a better source but, as a I said, I would expect even the greatest historian to back up claims with a reference to primary sources. What was the *specific* source for the Goals and where can it be obtained?
