...author was, of course, anonymous, the photo phony, the organization nonexistent-and a play on the real CORE (Congress of Racial Equality). The man who presumably would hope to benefit most from the scurrilous handout-Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Louie B.

Though a known homosexual and prone to savage fits of violence, flabby, fair-haired Donald Maclean was privy to top-level U.S. atomic information as wartime First Secretary in Britain's Washington embassy, later headed the American desk in the Foreign Office. To one casual acquaintance, Maclean's allegiance to Communism "stuck out a mile." Yet, though they might be "eccentric," both were...
