Whittaker Chambers Farm : ウィキペディア英語版 | Whittaker Chambers Farm
The Whittaker Chambers Farm, also known as Pipe Creek Farm, was the home "of Whittaker Chambers, an ex-Communist whose revelations about his past espionage activities with Alger Hiss, a former State Department official, had major political repercussions after World War II. Here Chambers turned over the "Pumpkin Papers"〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher = WhittakerChambers.org )〕 implicating Hiss and later wrote 'Witness,' his best-selling autobiography."〔 It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1988.〔 According to the National Park Service it remains the "private property" of the Whittaker Chambers Family and is "not open to the public."〔 〕 ==Circumstances== The landmarking of the site was unusual at the time for two reasons. First, it did not pass a usual requirement of 50 years' age for a historic event. Second, the National Park System Advisory Board recommended against its designation. In 1988, Interior Secretary Donald P. Hodel granted national landmark status to the Pipe Creek Farm.
