Debs, were jailed by government officials using the Espionage Act of 1917 and the Sedition Act of 1918. | | | Seeing Red: Civil Liberty and the Law in the Period Following the War. | | | While United States Congress later repealed the Sedition Act in 1921, major parts of the Espionage Act remain codified in law. |

| | The Red Scare obviously cut a broad swath across Washington state politics in the late 1940s and 1950s—propelling conservative politicians to power, destroying the Washington Pension Union and other radical political groups, temporarily silencing liberal dissenters, and leaving a trail of besmirched reputations and shattered careers. | | | Truman, realizing containment would not be cheap, took the advice of Senator Arthur Vandenburg and decided to "scare the hell out of the county." In March 1947 Truman spoke to Congress to request $400 million in aid for Greece and Turkey, which were fighting civil wars against communist rebels. | | | Just as the UW's dismissal of pro-communist professors in 1949 had helped trigger a nationwide Red Scare in academia, the UW professors' victory against loyalty oaths in 1964 helped end the persecution of political dissenters in American universities. |

| | Ironically, the federal government's wartime repression had eliminated the majority of domestic radicals, leaving few politically active in the postwar states. | | | The Committee's investigation led to the eventual arrest of hundreds of Bolsheviks and "fellow-travelers." The federal government also acted. | | | In November and December of 1919 and in January of 1920 the Justice Department led by Attorney General Palmer and special investigator John Edgar Hoover conducted a series of "Red Raids" and arrested thousands of alien radicals. |

| | McCarthyism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It grew out of the Second Red Scare that began in the late 1940s and is named after the U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy, a Republican of Wisconsin. | | | Though the interpretation of the Red Scare might seem to be of only historical interest following the end of the Cold War, the political divisions it created in the United States continue to manifest themselves, and the politics and history of anti-communism in the United States are still contentious. | | | Many Americans responded to the cruder manifestations of the Red Scare by dismissing all claims by anti-communists concerning presumed communist infiltration in the United States. |

By the fall, the Legion had 650,000 members, and over a million by year's end. | | | Shortly after the end of World War I and the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, the Red Scare took hold in the United States. | | | During World War I, a fervent patriotism was prevalent in the country, spurred by propagandist George Creel, chairman of the United States Committee on Public Information. |

| | What little that is culturally remembered/known regarding the Red Hunt by the younger generation in the United States is basically promoted in films that deal with the Hollywood Blacklist—and avoid its more far-reaching effects on Organized Labor in particular and Social Conformism in general. | | | This remarkable historical political/social document contains personal narratives not only by individuals who were persecuted by the so-called “McCarthy Witchhunts,” but also includes first hand accounts by the very people who “hounded” them. | | | There have been very shallow artistic treatments such as the 70’s film The Way We Were, and more penetrating and thoughtful renditions like Guilty by Suspicion. |
