The papers cover a period in
1937-38, and all this may seem
like a lot of old stuff now; but .
if there was a spy rings here
then, the question is:
How far did it reach into the i
Hoverhment, that it could get
those papers, some of them ■
marked "strictly confidential for
the secretary of state,” into the
hands of a man, Chambers, who j
said he was a communist at that |

built so beautifully, what reason !
is there to believe it was ever :
completely broken up?

go far as the public is concerned,
there are three main points in
tl e excitement o' er the Cham-
bers-Hiss secret paper’s case.
1. How those highly secret pa-
pers ever got out of the State
Department.
2. What kind of spy ring was
really operating here in Washing-
ton. bow it operated, and who
was involved.
3. Whether anything like that
is going on now and what pro-
tection the government has taken
against it.
