Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of hearings that investigate the State Department's International Information program. These hearings were held in response to testimony given that alleged proposed transfers of Mr. Theodore Kaghan and Mr. Edmund Schechter of the Public Affairs staff of HICOG, Germany, to the Voice of America were canceled because they failed to pass security. The investigation, spurred by Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, is an example of the investigation of potentially subversive activities done during the era. The investigation was born of a climate where the specter of communist infiltration and influence was a major talking point of the day. It is a good example of the era of investigations into espionage, infiltration, and disloyalty seen in the period.
