Jordan's King Hussein has long favored Unking his country with a Palestinian state. Earlier this month, in an interview with TIME (Feb. 14), he said: "Some years ago we had the vision to suggest a federation of Palestine and Jordan. Now maybe this plan can be looked at again." The King, of course, envisages two states, each with its own Parliament, united under his Hashemite crown.

This is not to suggest Tony Hiss has any doubts about his father's innocence; on the contrary, quite clearly he thinks a great injustice has been done. Rather than dredging up inconsistencies in the trial transcripts or excoriating the witchhunters and their allies (as Lillian Hellman does in Scoundrel Time), he tries to build...
