Kent spy ties clouded in wartime material leak saga
The London rumor holds that Tyler Kent, code Sle, had access to Ambassador Kennedy's reports to Roosevelt on Chamberlain's stance toward war. The material may have passed through Ramsay to Anna Wolk, while Ramsay's role remains unclear. Kent faces possible Defense of the Realm Act detention and parliamentary talk of expulsion. The affair likely awaits war’s end for clarity.
