Mr. MILLER. That is right. And that may be at variance 50 percent one way or the other. Mr. WHEELER. We are not binding you on this. Mr. MILLER. Thank you, sir. Mr. WHEELER. Where were these meetings held that you attended? Mr. MILLER. I cannot recall specifically where any meetings might have been held. In fact, most of my activity while at Boeing’s was in legitimate, recognized trade-union work within the framework of the contract with Boeing Aircraft Co. Most, or if any, activity with other members, who I perhaps suspected to be Communists, or persons of my particular persuasion, was not in the form of a meeting, but perhaps I would meet one while at work, or I might meet one at the cafeteria, or several of us might meet together in the cafeteria and just discuss general problems. Mr. WHEELER. Did you receive any direction from the Communist Party to conceal your membership because of your employment at Boeing’s? Mr. MILLER. I do not believe it was at anyone’s direction. Thinking back--and I can only assign, a reason now going backward--I perhaps knew of my own intelligence not to do so. I would perhaps be expelled from the Aero Mechanics Union, which, of course, would mean loss of employment at Boeing’s. I do not recall any specific direction. Mr. WHEELER. But you have testified that you may have attended approximately 40 meetings during the period from 1943 to 1945, a period of, say, 18 months or 20 months. Mr. MILLER. I had thought I was testifying during the whole period at which I was in the party. Mr. WHEELER. No, it is confined to the period from the time you joined the Communist Party to when you entered the United States Navy. Mr. MILLER. Well then, of course, it makes more obvious that the answer was purely speculative and could well have been largely in error. I thought I was answering or speculating in regard to my whole membership in the Communist Party. Mr. WHEELER. Would you like to estimate again that period of time? Mr. MILLER. Well, I have got to go backward here. Which period of time are you referring to? Mr. WHEELER. From the time you joined the Communist Party until you entered the United States Navy. Mr. MILLER. That would be from 1943 up until 1945. Right? Two years? Mr. WHEELER. That is right. Mr. MILLER. Again a purely speculative answer: perhaps 20 meetings, sir. Mr. WHEELER. Now you attended approximately 20 meetings from 1943 to 1945. And from 1946 to 1948 you attended approximately 20 more. And you don’t recall the place where any of these meetings were held? Mr. MILLER. I have testified where I recalled that I thought we had conducted some. I cannot recall any specific place. One or two might have occurred at a rooming house where I stayed. I do not recall, sir. Mr. MOULDER. Where were they usually held? Was there a regular meeting place? Mr. MILLER. To the best of my knowledge; no, sir.
