Subject: Alger Hiss
Hello,
You might want to update your information on Alger Hiss. There is now
hard evidence that he was involved with the KGB.
Jeffrey Fiske
This and similar matters are troublesome as most American scholars of
American Communism are fairly revisionist and tend to discount the material
that is coming out of KGB archives. So its not hard at all to find
authority which contradicts or minimizes such material.
However, there is no reason that Fiske--or anyone else interested--can't
add to the Hiss article that "According to the KGB archives, [whatever they
say]....some scholars [identify if possible] question this because [reason]."
Our usual Wiki editing/NPOV approach.
Fred
