It seems he took part in the cpusa (and fellowtravellers) exodus from the USA to Mexico after 1945. --Radh (talk) 11:05, 11 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

British agent edit

At writing, there doesn't seem to be any coverage of his official work for British intelligence. Apparently they had worked out that he was a Soviet spy but could not prove it sufficiently to bring him to trial due to the difficulty of piercing his cover story that he was giving trivial information to american communists in hopes of getting more valuable information about the Soviets. http://pjmedia.com/ronradosh/2015/08/24/british-mi-5-files-out-another-cold-war-soviet-agent/?singlepage=true

The US decided not to prosecute because the information they knew at the time he had passed was exclusively british, a case of not our circus, not our monkey. The INS was informed that he was involved with the Soviets and that led to his deportation. TMLutas (talk) 11:08, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
