Pat Hurley fades from front line into Washington show
A long profile traces Pat Hurley from Oklahoma to Washington as he resigns as ambassador to China. It recalls his Capitol hearings battles with Webster Ballinger, a shift in faith, ties to Adm. Henry Morgenthau, and distant ties to Stalin and Chiang Kai-shek, ending with his public feuds and a Christmas broadcast plan by Rep. Leslie Arends and allies.
