    " Following is the full text althe statement issued last night 5!Rep. Donald L. Jackson, memberHome Committe on Un-AmericanActivities, concerning Lucille Ball-

    For many months the House Committee on Un-American Ac-tivities has been in possession

    .of information indicating that Miss Lucille Ball did, on March19, 1936, register to vote in the California primary election of that year, and that she specifiedher party aff il iation as Commu-nist.

    In addition, it has been de- termined that on the 15th of September, 1936, Miss Ball was appointed amember of the StateCentral Committee of the Com- munist Party byone Emil Freed,awell known functionary of theCommunist Party in the city and county of Los Angeles, whowas, in 1936, a candidate for

    tpublic office on the Communist -Party ticket.

    .- "Since the original informa- tion cameinto the possessionof

    Q18 committee; a-staff investi- gator has made a careful and

    -detailed investigation into the "circumstances relating to Miss s affiliationwiththeCom-JV p int_ for voting pur- subsequentap-iqauintznept memberof thegiiommunist 9 ysate Central

    oiComm$1i'e':,Recently information on these matters has also been ob-tained by independent sourcesother than the committee, and the release of such informationhas served to spur conjecture and rumor with respect to MissBall and the extent of her asso- ciation with and activities on behalf ofthe Communist Party.

    By direction of the Honor- able Harold H. Velde of Il linois,Chairman of the House Com- mittee on Un-American Activi- ties; and followinga telephonicpoll of a majority"of the mem-

    bers of the committee who could be reached today,I amauthorized and directedby thechairmanto make the followingstatement with respect to the status of the Lucille Ball matter insofar as the House Committeeon Un-American Activities is concerned.

    The committee is departing from its usual procedures inthis instance to the end that fact may be separated from rumor and that the actual status of Miss Balls associa- tion may be presented factuallyand officially.

    'IheHouse Committee on Un-American Activities is not unaware of the tremendous re- sponsibility resting upon it to insurethat those guilty of par- ticipation in the Communist conspiracy be exposed when- ever and wherever possible. By the same token, there rests upon the committeepan obliga- tion to insure that distortion of available facts be not permittedand .that rumor not be substi- tuted for the truth in any case.The prominenceof Misshallasan outstanding moving pictureand television artist is second- ary us the committee'sdeter-
