...been granted for shipment of some 1,500 Ibs. of uranium compounds (not the fissionable U-235) to Russia in the spring of 1943 before the Manhattan Project "cut off all sources of uranium material." But Jordan's story was of shipments occurring in 1944. Meanwhile Broadcaster Lewis kept the pot boiling by throwing in another prospective villain.
