...Huivenaar's job to find Westerners who were willing, for the sake of money or sympathy, to let their documents be used in the scheme. In a typical operation, Huivenaar would promise a dupe in the West about $200 for falling in with his plans, then convoy him to a Communist capital such as War saw, Budapest or East Berlin.

...examine Ford's four circles or unrest, you will not that there are very prominent gaps in the program of the so-called "wreckers." Apparently we want to destroy for the sake of desruction, or else we want some ill-defined revolution. Since it is true that revolution is not one interest or value among others, then those of us whom he would place in the fourth circle appear to outsiders to have no definite program of interests. In this light, our concern for the interests of others is merely a ruse for the furtherance of our own revolutionary ends...
