The inquiry probes whether White House instructions influenced the action and seeks alternate government measures to curb price rises amid the Suez crisis. Seaton was slated as first witness but was unavailable.

Obey Kremlin Orders Shake U S Communist Party Split
The French Communist leader Duclos warned the U S Communist Party to take orders from the Kremlin. His Jan 21 directive urged strict adherence to Marxism Leninism and solid support for Soviet foreign policy, ending internal strife between Kremlinites and Titoists. Browder’s faction condemned the move as a resurrection of the 1944-45 political association.

Kremlin official on Wallenberg death challenged by ex spy
Yuri Rastvorov told a Senate security panel that Abakumov was not the minister in 1944 when Wallenberg was arrested and died. He said Gen Merkelov led the security service then, and Abakumov only rose to top post in 1946 before Beria’s fall. The testimony questions Moscow’s heart attack death claim and Abakumov’s role.

McCarthy Attacks Eisenhower on Atoms For Peace Plan
Senator Joseph R. McCarthy branded the administration’s atoms for peace proposal as a giveaway of uranium-235 that could arm bombs and wipe out major American cities. Speaking in Chicago to 1,200 at a Lincoln Republican Club event, he claimed the U.S. has already pledged enough material to build hundreds of bombs by 1960 and warned Russia and Red China could access it. He criticized the so called safeguards of the international agency and refused personal fealty to the President, urging caution over atomic security.
