It said it would not comply in any way with the rul- ing, claiming it outlaws the party in the United States. Gus Hall, the party's general secretary, said the Supreme Court decision earlier this week "asks the Communist party to commit suicide." He told a press conference: "As officers of the party, we would rather spend the rest of our days in prison than betray the trust and confidence of one member or of one supporter. Hall said the party will seek reversal of the latest Supreme Courtde cision, and congres- | sional action to change the law.
