Hear 3 New Witnesses In Spying Probe
Washington dispatch reports the House Un American Activities Committee will hear three more witnesses in the spy inquiry. The witnesses, former government officials from New York, are believed to know Alger Hiss and Whittaker Chambers and were subpoenaed for questioning before next week’s public hearings. The hearings will focus on spadework related to the Hiss Chambers case, not fresh testimony on underground operations. Chambers, editor of Time, testified to being a Communist from 1924 to 1947, while Hiss denied affiliation and later acknowledged some connection to Chambers during earlier questioning.
