Clear and Present Danger
By Vern Countryman
The Committee
by Walter Goodman
Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 564 pp., $10.00
For thirty years this country has borne, among other afflictions, the performance of the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Goodman's is the fourth book about that performance. These books provide more than ample evidence for the conclusion that the best thing to do with HUAC is to abolish it, though Goodman's provides less such evidence than did the earlier ones.
