Here are the backgrounds of the three: EUGENE LYONS, well known foreign correspondent and editor, , lived in Moscow for six years, | 1928-34, as United Press repre- sentative. He was the first news- Ppaperman to interview Joseph Stalin after his rise to supreme power, as well as the only for- eign reporter to interview the late Shah of Persia, Riza Pahle- vi. After his return to America, Mr. Lyons became editor of The American Mercury, the magazine founded by H. L, Mencken. He resigned this post late in 1944 to start thé magazine Pageant, | from which he withdrew after it was successfully presented, to the public: Mr. Lyons: was the |second President of the Overseas '| zation. of present and former: for“ éign |correspondents. Some years ago Mr. Lyons published his au- tobiographical book “Assignment | in Utopia,” chiefly an account of his years in Russia; it became a best seller and, in fact, is still selling widely. He is also the author cf “The Red Decade,” which is still selling widely, and which is’ the story of communist infiltration of Ameri- Russias” and other books. SPENCER WILLIAMS, recent- ly returned from India, where he had served during the war with the OWI, monitoring Japan- ese broadcasts. Before that he organized our wartime monitor- ing on the Pacific ‘coast and in Hawaii for the FCC. During the representative ‘in’ Moscow 'df the American-Russian’' Chamber -of Commerce, at the same 'time act- ing as foreign correspondent for The Manchester’ ‘Guardian’ ‘of {England and‘ other papers. In 10—33 | is i fp att 10-311 1940 he was stationed in the Bal. ‘kans for the Columbia Broad- casting System, reporting, news developments in that area. He remained in Rumania until King Carol was “kicked out” and the}..’ Iron Guards came. to. power whereupon he returned to Amer- ica. ALEXANDER BARMINE is author of the current best seller “One Who Survived,” which has been greeted by reviewers as one of the most revealing inside stories of life under the Soviet dictatorship. In this book Bar- mine recounts his own life under the Soviet regime and his break with it. Barmine was a Brigadier General in the Russian Red Army } and held other high posts in his native land, the last as charg d affaires of the Soviet Embassy in Greece. After he came to the | USA he joined the American | Army as a private. Later he was wife, Mrs. Billy Lyons,’ former stage beauty with Ziegfeld Follies and other musical shows; they have one daughter, Eugenie, who is married to Captain Joseph A. Haimes of the Army Air Forces. Mr. and Mrs. Lyons are stopping at North Beach Inn. With Mr. Williams are his ‘wife, ‘Caroline, and their daughter, Tamara. They are living at the Barmines’ home. Government tax and revenue collections set a record in 1945.
