add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the "Miami Formula" campaign. The campaign originated in a grand jury investigation in January, 1954, of the politics of a Miami Beach councilman active in the liberal wing of the Democratic Party. Witnesses have been questioned intensively about membership in such organizations as the Southern Conference for Human Welfare, the F.D.K Club, the American Veterans Committee and the Progressive Party. The Miami Jewish Cultural Center has been a repeated object of grand jury investigations. The article also describes the case of Samuel Hirsch, a Miami theater man.
