according to witness in mid-1932, whittaker chambers received orders to join soviet intelligence or in his terms to enter the soviet underground. first he received training in espionage technique from john sherman, a colleague at the daily worker in the 1920s. then he performed minor spy tasks, an early residence for soviet handlers i marken and ulinovski. he received orders to set up a cell in london. for cover, he was to set up a foreign branch of the literary agency of maxim lieber. some of his clients may ring bells today. john cheever, theodore driezer, langston hughes, and thomas wolff. however, for reasons unknown, london fizzled out after a few months, and as it did, chambers received another assignment, still in 1934. he was to help his old comrade set up another cell. this one in tokyo, again with help from lieber. as cover, the trio came up with a fake new syndicate under the the literary agency and started signing up news clients like the new york post. for news lead or perhaps for more covert reasons they met a shanghai based american journalist then visiting new york. she

my name is indeed david chambers and i confess here and now that i am a grandchild of whittaker chambers, the subject of my paper. due to time constraints, i'll jump straight in and start by laying to rest that the case is a sideshow. when compared to chambers' earlier spy work for two chief reasons. first, no proof exists that any of the group's ten former federal members in the later 1930s stole major secrets or effected major shifts in u.s. policy. second, i argue today that washington's representative side branch of the global network of soviet intelligence in which chambers' own role was small, but which as a network was more crit cool to his life's story, particularly in terms of his thinking and the long term impact of his written thoughts. so what happened before the case that was so important? in a nutshell, during 1934-1935, chambers worked to set up spy cells in tokyo and london. these cells were, in my assessment, some of the final links made bysoeveriate gre sov illegals to complete a spy network. they overlapped with two of the greatest successes in known soviet espionage.
