While endorsing a Truman commission plan, he attacked any labor legislation passed hastily ahead of the commission's results, saying, "Judging from the bills now before Congress, their purpose is merely to penalize labor organizations." Senator Hatch agreed with him that severe wage cuts in terms of real wages and increased cost of living would not find resolutions in terms of legislation that addresses only jurisdictional disputes or secondary boycotts. "We need additional and new laws on all phases of the general problem of labor-management," Hatch said.<a href="#cite_note-50">[50]</a> Again in January 1947, on the topic of the related <a href="/wiki/Portal_to_Portal_Act_of_1947" title="Portal to Portal Act of 1947">Portal to Portal Act of 1947</a>, publicly before the US <a href="/wiki/Senate_Judiciary_Committee" class="mw-redirect" title="Senate Judiciary Committee">Senate Judiciary Committee</a>, he urged Congress to make that act a simple authorization to employers and unions to settle portal claims through collective bargaining, while prohibiting management from attempting such settlements with individual workers at the "economic mercy" of employers. Further, he urged Congress to use the US Supreme Court's definition of "work" as activities of an employe which required physical or mental exertion for an employer's benefit and under an employer's control. Any legislation that ended portal-to-portal claims, he said, would "most seriously undermine" and in fact threatened "the entire future, operation" of the 1938 <a href="/wiki/Fair_Labor_Standards_Act" class="mw-redirect" title="Fair Labor Standards Act">Fair Labor Standards Act</a>.<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> Again at month's end, he attacked labor curb bills in Congress during a speech before the <a href="/wiki/University_of_Cincinnati" title="University of Cincinnati">University of Cincinnati</a> Lawyers Institute. He said: <blockquote> Where parties agree to union security, what objection can there be? Nine million workers are now covered by such contracts. The status of the union under the Wagner Act established the obligation not to discriminate against non-members. Why should not all employees, therefore, have an obligation to become members? ...

The fairness of the Labor Board has been established by decisions of the Supreme Court ... [A compulsory] "cooling-off period" [would] actually discourage collective bargaining ... There is adequate protection in State courts for breach of collective bargaining agreements. Federal legislation will limit the protection labor unions now have under the anti-injunction statute.

Lee Pressman, 63, the C.I.O.'s legal counsel from 1936 until 1948, when his far-left politics finally cost him his job and career; of cancer; in Mt. Vernon, N.Y. Pressman never made any bones about his Communist leanings, often supporting the Moscow line. Yet as a union lawyer he was tops; he played a major role in negotiating the original C.I.O. contracts with such industrial giants as <a href="/wiki/U.S._Steel" title="U.S. Steel">U.S. Steel</a> and <a href="/wiki/General_Motors" title="General Motors">General Motors</a>, and ably fought labor cases before the Supreme Court.<a href="#cite_note-102">[102]</a></blockquote> In 1948, "the first of a series of reports on Communists and Pro-Communists for Wallace" summarized Pressman's role in both the CIO and the 1948 presidential campaign as follows: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">Before taking up the question of the Wallace vote in the CIO Executive Board [in January 1948], it is pertinent to discuss the resignation of Lee Pressman as general counsel of the CIO. Less Pressman has exercised a dominant role in the CIO, thanks to his appointment by John L. Lewis. The main reason for his resignation, given by Pressman himself, was that he would be able to participate in the Wallace campaign for the presidency. Inasmuch as the CIO Executive Board voted in January 1948, three to one against Wallace's candidacy, Pressman's position became untenable. Long before John L. Lewis selected him as general counsel of the CIO, Lee Pressman was a member of the Communist Party. The fact of Pressman's Communist Party membership was first revealed in the newspapers by <a href="/wiki/Nelson_Frank" title="Nelson Frank">Nelson Frank</a> in the New York <a href="/wiki/New_York_World_Telegram" class="mw-redirect" title="New York World Telegram">World Telegram</a> on November 25, 1946. Pressman did not challenge Frank's statement. Frank's revelation may be accepted as authentic, without fear of a challenge by Pressman. Just why Philip Murray submitted meekly to the rule of a known Communist for so many years is a difficult question to answer. Nevertheless, the fact is on the record. Right down the line for twelve years, Lee Pressman has been loyal to the Communist Party. Henry A. Wallace has done the CIO and the country a distinct service by driving Pressman into the open as a support of Stalin's candidate–nothing more, nothing less. Lee Pressman had to make his choice: either get out of the Communinst Party and hold his job in the CIO, or resign from the CIO and support the Communist Party's candidate. He did the latter, and in so doing clarified the political situation in the United States in 1948... (Pressman's) resignation ... was one of the most significant defeats which the Communists have suffered in the CIO.<a href="#cite_note-103">[103]</a></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Subsequent_findings">Subsequent findings</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Lee_Pressman&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Subsequent findings">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg/220px-Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="301" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg/330px-Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c0/Vassiliev-Alexander.jpg 2x" data-file-width="350" data-file-height="479" /></a><figcaption>KGB expert <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Vassiliev" title="Alexander Vassiliev">Alexander Vassiliev</a>.</figcaption></figure> Pressman's <a href="/wiki/VENONA" class="mw-redirect" title="VENONA">VENONA</a> codename was "Vig."<a href="#cite_note-Spies-7">[7]</a> In 1946, VENONA reveals that Pressman hosted Mikhail Vavilov, first secretary in the Soviet embassy, at his home in Washington, D.C., where he met fellow (former) Ware Group member <a href="/wiki/Charles_Kramer_(economist)" title="Charles Kramer (economist)">Charles Kramer</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Spies-7">[7]</a> In 1948, <a href="/wiki/Anatoly_Gorsky" title="Anatoly Gorsky">Anatoly Gorsky</a>, former chief of <a href="/wiki/Chronology_of_Soviet_secret_police_agencies" title="Chronology of Soviet secret police agencies">Soviet intelligence</a> operations in the United States, listed Pressman, code-named "Vig–Lee Pressman, former legal adviser of the Congress of Industrial Organizations" among the Soviet sources likely to have been identified by US authorities, as a result of the defection of Soviet courier <a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_Bentley" title="Elizabeth Bentley">Elizabeth Bentley</a> three years earlier.<a href="#cite_note-Spies-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-104">[104]</a> In 1949, VENONA reveals that the <a href="/wiki/KGB" title="KGB">KGB</a> used Pressman to pay <a href="/wiki/Victor_Perlo" title="Victor Perlo">Victor Perlo</a> for "analysis."
