What was the Alger Hiss's trial about?
During Alger Hiss's first trial, he was charged with perjury. He had told several lies under an oath,saying that he was never a Communist, and he did not know Whittaker Chambers. The first trial ended in a swing jury: eight believed that Alger Hiss was guilty, and four believed that he was not guilty. The law required that Alger Hiss would have to tried again. Between the first and second trials, the Soviet Union exploded an atominc bomb, ending the U.S. monopoly on nuclear weapons. The two nightmares for America in the 1940s had collided into one: the Communists had the bomb. The defense in the second trial made efforts to convince the jury that Chambers was crazy. The jury did not think that he was crazy. After twenty-four hours the jury finally found Alger Hiss guilty of perjury.-Miley
