Truman announced the creation of the President's Temporary Commission on Employee Loyalty (TCEL) (November 25, 1946 – February 1, 1947).[1][2] BackgroundThe formation of the TCEL came two weeks after a sweeping Republican victory in 1946 mid-term elections (in which Richard Nixon first gained federal office and Joseph McCarthy rose from Wisconsin judge to U.S. Senator).[3] The House civil service subcommittee had recommended a similar investigative body during the summer of 1946, which the President directed the new commission to consider. The interagency commission would "study the Governments methods for testing the loyalty of its more than 2,000,000 employes [sic]."[1][2] FormationNews of the TCEL made the front page of the New York Times under the headline "President orders purge of disloyal from U.S. posts."[1] StructureTruman's commission consisted of representatives from several government departments: Department of Justice, Department of State, Treasury, Department of War, and Civil Service Commission.[1][2] U.S. Attorney General Tom C. Clark appointed Special Assistant to the Attorney General A. Devitt Vanech as chair.[4] (Vanech was close to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover at the time.{{citation needed|date=January 2018}}) Commissioners were to serve without pay and submit their first report to the President by February 1, 1947.[1] MissionThe commission sought to determine federal loyalty standards and establish procedures for removal or disqualification of disloyal or subversive persons from federal posts.[1][5] While President Truman empowered the commission to follow its own course, he asked that it pursue the following issues: The President's aim was believed: Motivated in part by a desire to strip the opposition of the "Red" cry which it has directed at the Administration, The chief target, most observers, agreed, would be the Communists. But the question in many minds last week was: Where would a distinguishing line between Communists and non-Communist leftists be drawn?&91;2&93; NamingThe TCEL did not receive its name until a few days later, apparently appearing in print on December 1, 1946, in the New York Times and Washington Post.[2] Report and cessationWith submission of the TCEL's report on February 1, 1947, the commission would cease.[2] The report of the TCEL led directly to Truman's Executive Order 9835.
