Senators urge FBI reports to Congress on subversive risk
Senators McCarran and Ferguson pressed that FBI reports be shared with Congress to help block possible government subversion. The push followed Alexander Barmine testimony to the Senate internal security subcommittee claiming a Soviet intel report named Owen Lattimore and Joseph Barnes as "our men." Barmine, a former Red Army officer now with the State Department, testified he fled the Soviet fold in 1937 and later served in WWII. He linked the Lattimore Barnes claim to an FBI report and noted Lattimore denies the charge as nonsense.
