Price became a "cut out", or go-between government employees who were also members of the CPUSA secret apparatus.  Among them were [[Maurice Halperin]], [[Duncan Lee]], [[Helen Tenney]] of the [[OSS]] (Office of Strategic Services); [[Robert Miller]] the [[Department of State|U.S State Department]]; and [[Michael Greenberg]] an associate of presidential aide [[Lauchlin Currie]]. Lee was the personal assistant to OSS head General [[William J. Donovan]], the first intelligence chief in America's newly created wartime intelligence agency.  The material from Halperin was considered extremely valuable especially how it related to the [[Polish government in exile]].
