Missing "Lee List"[edit]

In his book, Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies, M. Stanton Evans shows a first page (p. 247) from the "Lee List" (which discusses and from which he cites extensively): however, his book does not provide either the entire list (document), nor a clear source (simply the "Walter Judd papers" at the bottom of page 247), nor a bibliographic reference that documents where that list is available (because, in fact, the book contains no bibliography for more than 600 pages of text and 20 pages of end notes). Under end note 5 for Chapter 20 (pages 617-618), Evans states, "There are many copies of the Lee list extant, mostly in mimeogrpah form as circulated in the halls of Congress (all identical as to text, but with different ancillary data). The version most accessible to researchers, though without name keys and somewhat buried in a voluminous record is in the appendix of the Tydings hearings, pp. 1745 et seq."[1] Has anyone obtained a complete copy–and could they please create a new "Lee List" entry on Wikipedia? --Aboudaqn (talk) 19:45, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Missing memoir[edit]

Again his Blacklisted by History, M. Stanton Evans has a foot note (p. 246) that claims "Lee would entitle his unpublished memoir Only the Name is the Same. "[1] Evans gives no further details: whether he has seen it, where he has seen it, where others can see it. Has anyone run across a copy of that memoir? Please let us know here.--Aboudaqn (talk) 19:45, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]


The "memoir" may well have morphed into his eventual autobiography, "In the Public Interest", published after his death. I've added a citation at the end of the article. -- J.P.
