| - The Pumpkin Papers are a set of typewritten, handwritten, and microfilmed documents, stolen from the US federal government (thus information leaks) by members of the Ware Group and other Soviet spy networks in Washington, DC, during 1937-1938, withheld by courier Whittaker Chambers from delivery to the Soviets as protection when he defected. The Pumpkin Papers featured frequently in criminal proceedings against Alger Hiss during the period of Hiss Case (August 1948 - January 1950). The term "Pumpkin Papers" quickly became shorthand for the complete set of handwritten, typewritten, and microfilmed documents in newspapers. Along with names like Richard Nixon, Alger Hiss, and Whittaker Chambers, the Pumpkin Papers is a name closely associated with the Hiss Case. (en)
