[[Mary Price]] was a secretary to Lippmann. Sometime prior to March 1941 Mary Price agreed to furnish [[Jacob Golos]], controller of the secret apparatus of the [[CPUSA]] on behalf of the [[Soviet Union]], with all the information she could concerning the material Lippmann was writing and his contacts. [[Elizabeth Bentley]] was made the courier between Washington, D.C. where Price worked and New York where she and Golos lived together. Price also ran a honey trap apartment in Washington on behalf of the [[KGB]].
