Newsweek fili NEWSWEEK BUILDING BROADWAY AND 42ND STREET NEW YORK 18 PC Calm Dear Dick: I don't know whether or not Ithiel de Sola Pool has gotten in touch with you yet. But at this end, I've been checking very carefully. The more I look into it, the more I'm convinced that he's been wronged. His record is clean right down the line--anti-Stalinist all the way. On his parents, the story is a little different. They are not Party members but they've got some bad party front affiliations and have been pretty involved. If this means that Ithiel is marked lousy, I don't know what can be done. I do know that he sees them practically never--they're in New York and he in California. At any rate, if he comes for help, I'd appreciate it if you gave him an understnading hearing.
