Walt Disney: Works

B) Ive just come back from reading Disney's talk with Smith at the HUAC hearings. He never really fingered anyone- he gave names of people he thought were communists because they probably were. His workers never went on strike- one man tried to make them go on strike because he wanted a part of it all, and Walt wouldnt have it. His employees came to him, and told him what was going on, and he tried his best to stop it.
