Remington spent all his savings last year fighting off Elizabeth Bentley's charges that he had given her secret documents while he was with the War Production Board. He has recently been accused of membership in a 1937 Knoxville Communist cell. Lee was charged by a Senator with impeding the flow of aviation gasoline to the Chinese nationalists. It will be very unfortunate if the two men are fired without the public finding out what the Commerce Department thinks of these charges, if indeed it thinks of them...

...hear excerpts from secret testimony taken from two more ex-Communists: Howard Allen Bridgman, identified as an associate professor at Tufts College in Massachusetts, and Kenneth McConnell, a onetime party organizer. Both had sworn that they knew Remington as a Communist Party member and had sat in cell meetings with him while he worked (during a one-year interlude between his second and third years at Dartmouth) as a messenger for TVA. McConnell recalled that the party had once disciplined Remington for sloppy dressing, had later "induced" him to return to college because Communism needed "educated men as well...
