Statue For Chambers
To the Editor: In last Friday's
Mail Tribune there appeared a
communication by Mr. Pruitt.
This writer took R.W.R. to task
for his comments on the Hiss
trial and Chambers and took
Chambers to his bosom. He
even suggested the latter de
served a vote of thanks a no
tion not even the most optimistic
imp in hell would entertain.
This man Chambers became a
communist and betrayed his
country; he later reversed his
field and betrayed the commun
ists. Such brazen depravity is
rarely comparisoned in the an
nals of mankind! After solemnly
declaring he had become a "God
fearing man," Chambers admit
ted in the next breath, to seven
bare-faced lies while testifying
before the grand jury that In
dicted his "friend"!
What Chambers deserves is to
have his statue cast in brass and
placed in public squares through
out the hind as the most accurate
example of consummate hypoc
racy and collosal perfidy ever to
infest God's footstool!
I too, kept track of the Hiss
trials; also read all comments by
RWR on Hiss and Chambers. In
my opinion RWR did a brilliant
and thoroughly unbiased job of
reporting. He was right there in
the Court room where he could
see and hear everything that
went on; he could also discuss
