Military Secrets
Stolen By Spies
WASHINGTON, (/P)—Vital mil
itary secrets of friendly nations
turned up today among stolen
government papers uncovered in
the House un-American activities
committee’s Spectacular Red spy
hunt.
They involve such things as Bri
tish battleships, Chinese bombers
and strategic war materials from
the Argentine.
And as the committee scrapped
furiously with the Truman admin-;
istration over how the spy probe
should be run, it spotted suspect
number three out in Appleton, |
Wis.
It ordered him to show up for a
hearing today.
The man has been described to
the committee as a former em
ployee of the national bureau of
standards. The bureau tests some
of the government’s most secret
weapons and military devices.
The committee got the man’s
name from Whittaker Chambers,
a former communist courier.
Chambers has testified that while!

he was in the Red underground
before the war, government work
e s fed him secret documents for
transmission to Russian agents.
He has named Alger Hiss and
Henry Julian Wadleigh, both for
merly’in the state department, as
two of the suppliers.
Hiss, now head of the Carnegie
Foundation for Interna t i o n a 1
peace, has denied all.
Wadeligh, now unemployed and
living at nearby Vienna, Pa., was
a witness yesterday. He refused to
say whether he had or had not
slipped secret information from
the state dcj artment.
Wadleigh said he might incrim
inate himself by answering ques
tions on that point.
Chambers has yielded to the
committee some of the papers he
obtained, in the form of photo
graphs or copies. Most of them
came from the state department
and are dated 1937 and 1938.
It is known that they contain in
formation on such touchy subjects
of the times as:
Whether Britain was going to
specialize on cruisers or battle
ships asthe backbone of her fleet
The placing of Chinese orders
for bombers in France
The size of Chinese troop move
ments during her war with Japan.
Argentine sales of large quanti
fies of linseed oil to the Germans
! at fancy prices. Linseed oil is a
strategic war material.
Germany was getting ready
then to move against Austria.
Some o fthe papers deal with the
Austrian anschluss and with other
behind-the-scenes maneuvers in
diplomacy and international poli
| tics.
The committee showed signs of
heeding the advice of the state de
partment on whether it should or
shouldn’t publish the texts of the
ten-year-old documents. Some
probably will be turned loose and
the rest withheld.
