271.31. Wilkinson v. U.S. (U.S.S.C., #37.) Facts: VI DOCKET 19. Feb. 27, 1961: U.S.S.C. affirmed (5-4), Stewart, J.: HUAC had probable cause to suppose Pet. a member of Communist Party; those opposed to existence of HUAC are not immunized from interrogation; U.S.S.C. will not speculate that motive of individual HUAC members in summoning Pet. was personal persecution. Black, J. (Warren, Douglas, JJ.) dissenting: testimony of paid informant that Pet. was a member of Communist Party, without benefit of cross-examination or inspection of his statements to FBI, does not establish probable cause; where First Amendment freedoms are left to depend on balance to be struck by U.S.S.C. between those freedoms and need of HUAC for information, liberty cannot survive, for under such rule there are no constitutional rights that cannot be "balanced" away. Douglas, J. (Warren, Black, JJ.) dissenting: could not read resolution authorizing HUAC as authorizing investigation of those who criticize HUAC without assuming that Congress intended to flout First Amendment. Brennan, J. (Douglas, J.) dissenting: inference is inescapable that dominant purpose of questions was not to gather information in aid of law-making or law-evaluation but to harass Pet. and expose him for sake of exposure.

271.32. Braden v. U.S. (U.S.S.C., #54.) Facts: VI DOCKET 19. Feb. 27, 1961: U.S.S.C. affirmed (5-4), Stewart, J.: issues substantially identical to Wilkinson; Pet's. refusal to answer being deliberate and intentional, he could not rely on his understanding of U.S.S.C.'s previous decisions. Black, J. (Warren, Douglas, JJ.) dissenting: "the presently prevailing constitutional doctrine, which treats the First Amendment as a mere admonition, leaves the liberty-giving freedoms which were intended to be protected by that Amendment completely at the mercy of Congress and this Ct. whenever a majority of this Ct. concludes, on the basis of any of the several judicially created 'tests' now in vogue, that abridgment of these freedoms is more desirable than freedom itself."; "this Ct's. duty to guard constitutional liberties is to guard those liberties the Constitution defined, not those that may be defined from case to case on the basis of this Ct's. judgment as to relative importance of individual liberty and governmental power". Douglas, J. (Warren, Black, Brennan, JJ.) dissenting: Pet. entitled to rely on his interpretation of prior decision of U.S.S.C.; when First Amendment is involved, propriety of questions asked of Pet., in terms of pertinency, should be narrowly construed; there being nothing in record to show that organizations about which Pet. was questioned had remotest connection with Communist Party, charge of HUAC that there was such a connection amounts to little more than innuendo; a comm's. undisclosed information or unsupported surmise would not justify investigation into matters that on their face seemed well within First Amendment; before inroads in First Amendment domain may be made, some demonstrable connection with communism must first be established and matter be plainly shown to be within scope of HUAC's authority.
