Further Spy Ring Arrests Expected
Washington reports three American citizens have been arrested as part of a widening Soviet wartime spy network. FBI agents say more arrests are likely, as investigators connect clues from Klaus Fuchs’s London case to allege conspirators Alfred Dean Slack, David Greenglass, and Sidney Weinbaum, each facing wartime espionage charges with possible death penalties and bonds set at 100000 dollars. Slack and Greenglass are linked to RDX production and Los Alamos atomic work, while Weinbaum is accused of Communist party concealment after a California Institute of Technology role.
