Macmillan was expected to face new political storm despite an earlier agreement calling for no more questions in public about former British agent Harold A.R. (Kim) Philby. Moscow confirmed Tuesday that Philby had defected to commu nism, asked for asylum in Rus sia and requested Soviet citizen ship. It described him as a "lead ing" member of British intelli gence. On July 1 Lord Privy Seal Ed ward Heath identified Philby as the mysterious "third man" who had warned turncoat diplomats Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean they were under British surveil lance. Bureess and Maclean fled to the Soviet Union in 1951 after years of security service in the British Diplomatic Corps. Shortly thereafter. Philby was forced to resign because of his Communist connections.

The Soviet government newspa nrr Izvestia. which confirmed his dpffctinn. had claimed earlier! this year that Philby's job was to help the deposed Imam of Yemen .noain his throne. Izvestia said at the time that Philby was in the I pay of American and Bntisn in telligence.

N. lie said it is not delinite yet who the speaker will be. ' The local John Birch chapters, he said, "realizing that not every one supports the U. N. so docilely as does the League, have decided to sponsor a program showing; the other side of the U. N. Since there i o much material against the United Nations that the League does not use. it is only fair that the public have an opportunity to see this unfavorable side." he conclud ed.

(Shorty) Powers as director of public affairs at the Manned Spacecraft Center, the head of the center said today. Dr. Robert Gilruth. head of the space center, said Haney will re place the 41-year-old Powers sometime this week. Powers will remain with the space center near Houston as a special assistant to the director, Gilruth said. Powers' new duties have not yet been detailed. Haney, 35, is a former assistant city editor for the Washington bvening star. He has been with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration since De cember 1958. In speaking of the transfer of Powers, Gilruth said "Col. Pow ers did an outstanding job on the Mercury program, for the center and for the country." Gilruth said he originally in tended to announce the changes at a press conference later this week, but a "leak" developed and because of several queries, he had to confirm it early today. It had been speculated several times in recent weeks that Pow ers would be fired because of a dispute with NASA headquarters officials. Powers became as familiar to the public as the astronauts he publicized during his four years as the voice of Mercury control. Since the flight of Mnj. L. Gor don Cooper last May, Powers had been conspicuously absent from several celebrations tendered the astronauts.
