==Subversion in Government Investigation==
Vice-President Wallace celebrated July 4, 1944, in Chita, Soviet Siberia accompanied by John Hazard, [[Owen Lattimore]], and [[John Carter Vincent]] of the [[Institute of Pacific Relations]] (IPR), on an official fifty-two-day, twenty-seven-thousand-mile junket to Soviet Asia and China and was the guest of Sergei Arsenevich Goglidze and Ivan Nikoshov, dreaded masters of the Soviet Siberian [[gulag|slave-labor camps]].<ref>''Yalta Betrayal'', Wittmer, 1953, pg. 58.

In 1944 the Institute of Pacific Relations, according to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, "disseminated and sought to popularize false information including information originating from Soviet and Communist sources," <ref>US Senate, 82nd Congress, 2nd Session, Committee on the Judiciary, Institute of Pacific Relations, Report No. 2050, p. 223.</ref> published a fifty-six-page pamphlet, ''Our Job in Asia'', which was allegedly written by Vice-President Wallace. "The Russians," the author of the pamphlet claimed, "have demonstrated their friendly attitude toward China by their willingness to refrain from intervening in China's internal affairs." Some years later -- after the collapse of the American allied [[Kuomintang]] government to the [[Comintern]] sponsored [[Maoist]] regime and in the midst of the [[Korean War]] which cost 53,000 American lives, on October 17, 1951, Wallace testified before the [[Senate Internal Security Subcommittee]]. Wallace admitted: "It begins to look, for the time being at any rate, that my size-up as made in 1944 was incorrect." <ref>US Senate, 82nd Congress, 1st Session, Committee on the Judiciary, Institute of Pacific Relations, Part V, pp. 1302, 1206.</ref> Wallace further admitted under oath that most of a book entitled ''Soviet Asia Mission'' written under his name detailing his official trip to Soviet Siberia and China in 1944 had actually been written by Andrew J. Steiger, a person identified under oath as a member of the [[Communist party]]. The Communist party at that time advocated the violent overthrow of the [[United States]] Constitution.
