Christ's sake. (door slams) It wasn't Nichols or Hoover or one of Truman's guys. It was you. You gave the file to Borden. You set him on Oppenheimer. - You convinced him to... - (loudly): Borden... (in normal tone): didn't take any convincing. NICHOLS: Take your time, use the entire file. Write up your conclusion, send them to the FBI. The material is obviously extensive, but there's nothing new here. STRAUSS: Your conclusions will be. And they'll have to be answered. Hoover passes them to McCarthy? Oppenheimer's too slippery for that self-promoting clown. I've talked it over with Hoover, he'll hold McCarthy at bay while you do this with the AEC. - A trial. - No. No trial. You can't give Oppenheimer a platform. You can't martyr him. We need a systematic destruction of Oppenheimer's credibility so he can never again speak on matters of national security. Then what?

ROBB: Doctor, in the years following the war, would you say that you exerted a great influence on the atomic policies of the USA? ROBERT: I think great would be an overstatement. ROBB: Really? If we look at the issue of isotopes, were you not personally responsible for destroying all opposition to their export? - Could use a-a bottle of beer... - (laughter) when making atomic weapons. In fact, you do. I was the spokesman, but the-the opinion among scientists was unanimous. All along with McCarthy on the rise, he knew he was vulnerable. His brother was blacklisted by every university in the country.

ROBB: After the Russian A-bomb test, did Dr. Lawrence come to see you about the hydrogen bomb? You'd be better off asking him. Well, I fully intend to. Would you say that Dr. Oppenheimer was unalterably opposed to the H-bomb? No, he-he thought that a fusion program would come at the expense of our awfully good fission program. But that proved not to be the case. In the event both could be done. Suppose that this board did not feel satisfied that in his testimony here, Dr. Oppenheimer had been wholly truthful. What would you say whether or not he should be cleared? Why go through all this against a man who has accomplished what Dr. Oppenheimer has? Look at his record. We have an A-bomb and a whole series of it. We have a whole series of Super bombs. What more do you want? Mermaids? TELLER: But I've known Secretary Strauss for many years, and I feel it a necessity to express the warm support for science and scientists Lewis has shown. We'll break now, unless there's any immediate business. STRAUSS: Senator, I'd like to once again request that we're furnished with a list of witnesses. And I will remind the nominee that we don't always have that information in advance. We do know that Dr. Hill will be here after lunch. Mr. Chairman, our next scheduled witness, Dr. Lawrence, has apparently come down with colitis.
