The McCarran Act- law that made it unlawful to plan action that might lead to totalitarianism in U.S.

II. Spy Cases Stun the Nation Alger Hiss accused of spying for USSR; convicted of perjury. 1949, Soviets explode atomic bomb sooner than expected. Physicist Klaus Fuchs admits giving information about U.S. bomb. Implicates Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, minor Communist Party activists. Sentenced to death.

III. McCarthy Launches His “Witch Hunt” Senator Joseph McCarthy a strong anti-Communist activist. Ineffective legislator; needs help to win reelection. McCarthyism --- attacking suspected Communists without evidence. He claims there are Communists in State Department. Why do Americans believe him?

States, towns forbid speech favoring violent overthrow of government. Millions forced to take loyalty oaths, are investigated. No profession was safe from the hunt for Communists.
