Isn't Professor Frank a typical ratty looking hippy-dippy commissar? A creature right out of Dr. Zhivago. Looks like her boss, Donald Stone, is friends with the Commies at the National Lawyer's Guild.

Report of the Senate
Fact-Finding Subcommitteee on
Un-American Activities in
California, no. 11, 1961Since our last report is still in print and since this Communist front, organization is described therein at length, we cite our readers who are interested in learning more about this particular organization to our 1959 report at pages 20, 126-135, 137, 144, 197.
It is still extremely active throughout the United States, and has powerful chapters in virtually all of the large cities in California.
Since this organization has long been characterized as Communist-dominated by this Committee and other official agencies, and since it has been cited before the Subversive Activities Control Board in Washington, D.C., virtually all of the members who were attracted to the organization because they believed it was a completely independent liberal organization of attorneys filling a need for a group more liberal than the American Bar Association, quickly withdrew when they discovered the true nature of the control of the National Lawyers Guild leaving a membership of individuals who either didn't care if it were known they were persisting in their membership with a Communist front organization, or whose records of ideological conviction would naturally impel them to gravitate toward such an organization.
