Line 53:
Line 53: − − Since 1933 one of the main objectives in Soviet policy had been to maneuver America into war with Japan. Japan was a serious threat to Soviet designs on the Far East. If Japan's power were broken, there would be no difficulty in realizing Soviet objectives in Asia. The [[Roosevelt Administration]] wittingly or unwittingly followed the Soviet line, and [[Harry Dexter White]], an important and trusted official in the Administration, drafted a note to Japan that produced the war for which Roosevelt had long been looking. <ref>Communism at Pearl Harbor, How the Communists Helped to Bring on Pearl Harbor and Open up Asia to Communinization, Dr. Anthony Kubek, Dallas Texas, Teaching Publishing Company, 1959. Dr. Anthony Kubek was the Editor of the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary, [[Senate Internal Security Subcommittee]], Report on the ''Morgenthau Diaries''. The records of the Morgenthau Diary Study, 1953-65 consist largely of copies of portions of memorandums, correspondence, transcripts of meetings, and other records preserved by Secretary Morgenthau in order to document his tenure. The original records are in the custody of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library in Hyde Park, NY. In 1965, the SISS issued a two volume committee print entitled Morgenthau Diary (China), Edited by Dr. Anthony Kubek, containing entries from the records at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library selected to illustrate the implementation of Roosevelt administration policy in China. According to Dr. Anthony Kubek, the subcommittee wanted to produce a documentary history on the subject and "also indicate the serious problem of unauthorized, uncontrolled and often dangerous power exercised by nonelected officials," specifically Harry Dexter White. White was a major figure in Senator William Jenner's investigation of interlocking subversion in Government departments in 1953. The bipartisan investigation continued for twelve years, and the Subcommittee's Report took another two years to write.

General Secretary [[Josef Stalin]] of the [[Communist Party of the Soviet Union]] (CPSU), directed Soviet intelligence officers to collect information in four main areas. [[Pavel Fitin]], the 34-year-old chief of the KGB First Directorate, was directed to seek American intelligence concerning Hitler's plans for the war in Russia; secret war aims of London and Washington, particularly with regard to planning for [[Operation Overlord]], the second front in Europe; any indications the Western allies might be willing to make a separate peace with Hitler; and American scientific and technological progress, particularly in the development of an [[atomic weapon]].

Soviet recruitment of sources within American intelligence agencies, particularly within the [[Office of Strategic Services]] (OSS), the predecessor to the Central Intelligence Agency was impressive. The highest ranking recruit was [[Duncan Lee]], counsel to General William Donovan, OSS head. Lee, however, was extremely cautious and less productive than other OPGU sources, like [[Maurice Halperin]], or [[Donald Wheeler]], in the OSS Research and Analysis division. At least fifteen Soviet agents penetrated the OSS, with the actual number more likely around twenty.
