Spy Ring Faces New Prosecution Effort
Washington police and federal authorities reopen a full scale probe into four alleged World War I spy rings accused of funneling U S secrets to the Soviet Union. The enforcement push likely hinges on a new witness immunity law to secure testimony for indictments against higher ups. Gen Brownell hinted at reviving the spy ring inquiry when testifying last November on the Harry Dexter White case.
