Hurley Tells Of Mission To Moscow
Former ambassador Patrick J. Hurley testified before the senate inquiry into Far Eastern policy and MacArthur dismissal. He claimed Roosevelt, near death in 1945, asked him to seek milder terms of Yalta with Churchill in London and Stalin in Moscow. Hurley said he visited London and Moscow before learning of Roosevelt’s death and condemned the Yalta concessions as a surrender of World War II principles. He also accused the State Department of omitting praise for him in the 1949 White Paper and downplayed Alger Hiss’s relevance to Yalta. President Truman declined to comment on the inquiry.
