When Kozlov was asked to comment on anti-Semitism in the U.S.S.R., Menshikov again could only smile weakly. Kozlov, who gained a reputation as an anti-Semite during the "doctors' plot," seemed offended. "I have many friends of Jewish nationality," said he. Among them: a Leningrad rabbi, various Soviet officials, the wife of "President Voroshilov who unfortunately died recently.

It was roughly the same plan that toppled Peron in 1955-Fatal Flaw. But the plan had a paradoxical flaw: too many other...
...pushed membership past 16,000. It also ended one of the sorriest chapters in Guild history: domination by Communist sympathizers. Attracted by the Guild's obvious potential, Red-liners moved in soon after its formation, eventually controlled the national offices. After a bitter fight in 1941, anti-Communists forced through a national referendum that swept out the leftist administration by a 2-1 vote...
