Nixon cites security purge as Truman failures
Vice President Richard Nixon told a Republican fund dinner that 6,926 security risks were removed from the federal payroll in 13 months ending June 1954, and 164 State Department employees were security risks. He said 69 of the 164 were inherited from the Acheson era, with one temporary worker lost after clearance.
