::::The Amerasia affair really is the background on what motivated McCarthy. These guys got arrested, and the Truman Administration covered it all up. McCarthy even cites it in his Conspiracy so black speech, how J. Edgar had all the evidence and was ready to go, but the prosecutors in the Truman Justice Dept did nothing. Then, in 1948 when a Grand Jury was empanelled after Bentley's story went public, Roth skips town to avoid indictment. Lives happily ever after in London as a credible journalist digging up dirt on British MPs. The guy may even still be alive.
