Edna Lonigan Critiques State Department Defense of Suspected Officials
The essay argues that shielding accused or suspected State Department experts harms public trust. It cites reactions to Lattimore, money from communist channels, and a Newsweek report on a Washington meeting, urging full disclosure and loyalty to American interests over protecting suspects. The Brookyn Tablet raises questions about Yalta, Hiss, Judy Coplon, and Formosa, pressuring accountability.
