Communist Spy
Hunt Turns Up
Valuable Evidence
'Continued from Page One)
Chambers was tiled by Alger Hiss,
former high state department offi
cial. Chambers has testified Hiss
was among the members of a pre
war Red underground in the Cap
ital.
Chambers first made the accusa
tion at Congressional spy hearings
last summer. Hiss denied them.
When Chambers repeated some of
them in a broadcast, Hiss sued him
for libel.
First disclosure that new evi
dence was being uncovered in the
Chamber-Hiss controversy came
Friday when officials said Cham
bers and others had made sworn
statements last week in the office
of Chambers’ attorney, Cleveland.
On the basis of this evidence, at
torney general Clark said he
would recommend, if asked to do
so, that a special New York grand
jury resume its investigation of
communism and espionage.
The House committee saict it ex
pects Rep. Nixon <R.-Calif.> who
handled most details of the earlier j
Red spy investigation, to hurry to
Washington as swiftly as possible.
Stripling said some of the docu
ments that have come into the
committee’s possession through
enlarging the Chambers’ micro- j
film were on navy and war de- J
partment letterheads. But, he said,
it appears to him all the docu- ,
ments came from state department
files.
State department officials said
they had seen none of the new ma
terial obtained by the committee.
Therefore, they said, they had no
commnt.
Rep. Mundt <R.-S. D.>, a com
mittee member, said the micro
films alone provide “definite
proofs’’ of the existence of “one of
the most extensive espionage ifngs
in the history of the United States.’
Mundt indicated that microfilm
copies of top-secret diplomatic
notes and reports were turned
over to ‘Russian communist agents’
Whether the films obtained from
Chambers were additional copies,
he didn’t say.
And the latset definition of a
soldier: A civilian done up brown.
