" vice-president Henry Wallace on a tour of Kolyma in 1944 as an official guest. The objective was to establish good relations between the United States and the Soviet Union and to show how equipment provided under the Lend-Lease Agreement had been put into operation. Here he is in Seimchan in the midst of the camps (No 3 from the left in the bottom row). The book about his trip published in 1948 was a whitewash in which he explained that the United States could learn a lot from Ivan Nikishov (head of the Kolyma camps). Did he not know any better? Apparently not, but Churchill had sent Washington very clear reports about Kolyma. Churchill's information came from Poles who, on his initiative, had left Kolyma and who had intimate knowledge of the camps."
