OSS agent calls sex spy a liar in hearing
Washington August 10 three former government officials denied to the House Un American Activities Committee that they were ever members of a Communist spy ring. Duncan Lee and Robert T Miller denied being Communists but acknowledged acquaintance with Elizabeth Bentley while Ullmann refused to say if he was a Communist.

Subpoenas and immunity issues arose as the committee pressed denials and new inquiries continued, including a Russian teacher named Samarin and Mrs Kosenkina facing possible subpoenas.
