Coe denied under oath having ever been a member of the CPUSA before a [[House Committee on Un-American Activities]] (HUAC) hearing in 1948 chaired by Congressman [[Karl Mundt]]; after [[Alger Hiss]]'s conviction for perjury, when asked the same question in a 1953 hearing of the McCarthy [[Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations]] (PSI), that day being chaired by then Senator Karl Mundt, Coe declined to answer on Fifth Amendment grounds. Coe, on advice of councel, could not answer whether he knew [[William Taylor]], Coe's assistant for many years at the IMF, under protection of the Fifth Amendment. The (PSI) heard prior testimony from Economic Cooperation officials that the high rate for Austrian currency in 1949 worked against Austria's financial stability and in favor of [[History_of_Austria#Allied_occupation|Soviet occupation forces]]. The IMF, where Coe was secretary, objected to efforts to devalue the currency.

In 1958 Coe moved permanently to China to work for the [[Maoism|Maoist]] regime during the [[Great Leap Forward]], culminating in what Chinese history recalls as the [[Three_Years_of_Natural_Disasters#Background|Three Years of Disasters]]. By 1959, Coe was writing articles justifying the [[Cheng Feng|Rectification campaign]], which the ''[[Epoch Times]]'' characterized in December 2004 as "darkest and most ferocious power game ever played out in the human world".
