Joseph McCarthy: Telegram to President Harry S. Truman

( 1950 ) Commentary by Carl Rollyson, Baruch Colelge, The City University of New York

“Despite this State Department black-out, we have been able to compile a list of 57 Communists in the State Department. This list is available to you but you can get a much longer list by ordering Secretary Acheson to give you a list of those whom your own board listed as being disloyal and who are still working in the State Department.” - Telegram to President Harry S. Truman
