Read This Record on John S Service Controversy
A commentator links John S Service loyalty scrutiny to the Alger Hiss affair, citing Patrick J. Hurley’s 1945 charges against embassy staff in China and the later removal of eleven officials. The piece argues protectionist forces shielded Hiss-era loyalists and recalls Hurley’s public statements and State Department reactions.
