Oct 30, 1997, 2:15 PM PT On Monday evening, Paul Jarrico received a standing ovation at a Beverly Hills dinner in recognition of his tireless efforts to restore the credits of screenwriters like himself, victims of the Hollywood fllist.
Jarrico, an Oscar nominee for the 1941 Ginger Rogers romantic comedy Tom, Dick and Harry and a World War II veteran, was called before HUAC in 1951 after being denounced as a Communist by Richard Collins, his co-writer on 1943's Song of Russia.

 John Meroney on Howard Hughes and The Aviator on National Review Online
According to primary documents and archival news stories, when Paul Jarrico, a Communist-party member and screenwriter whom Hughes had been paying $2,000 a week, started publicly maligning congressional investigators and pled the Fifth Amendment when questioned under oath about the party in 1951, Hughes was incensed.
Hughes took Jarrico to court, asking for relief from Jarrico's private demands and arguing that Jarrico's allegiance to the Soviet Union had violated the morals clause of his contract, especially when American troops were fighting the Communists in Korea.
By the time of the Jarrico case, however, he was beginning to find the idea of having someone supportive of the Soviet regime working for him disturbing on a more fundamental level that had nothing to do with money.
