The Foreign Office statement

Uvtag in Britain '
Asked if King is living In Bri-
, tain, the spokesman said:
. "I believe so."
The spokesman said King had
been working in a department that
dealt with secret codes and highly
- confidential information and that
i ae had passed these oa to the
Russians.
He refused to go into details
, about the evidence sent to London
i from tbe United States. Asked If a
former Soviet intelligence officer,
Gen. Walter Krivitsky, was in-
, volved in the evidence, he replied
Tea, the assumption is correct
that Gen. Krivitsky'a evidence
helped convict King."

The spokesmaa said a consider
able amount of evidence was re
ceived from the United States
which "might have involved" a
British diplomat.' ''
'. Asked if the diplomat be re
ferred to wu Donald MacLean or
Guy Burgess turncoat Britons now
in Moscow, he said:
"You may assume that it wu
one of them."
He emphuized the information
pointing to a British diplomat u
, a spy it "not precise enough at
the time to identify him."
"However, it was enough to
make you wondei about him." '
Isaac Don Levine, a Waldorf,
Md.. author, testified at a Senate
Internal Security subcommittee
hearing that he got the story of;
the execution from Gen. Walter,
, Kriviuky. former chief of the So

For Lack of
GiildCare
ST. LOUIS tfl-The president of
the American Red Cross uys par
ents who are "unwilling to under
go the discipline of making a home
and bringing up children" are
probably a major cause of the
nation's present youth problems.
Ellsworth Bunker, tbe organiza
tion's president, spoke Wednesday
. on the last day of, it three-day
national convention' attended by
nearly S,0M delegates. He criti
cized "absentee parent" a the
, chief cause of Juvenile delinquency.
.Bunker, a resident of New York
and Putney. VL, said the "average
nrban family" remains in ooe lo
cation only a little mora than two
years. . " A
"What effect does this have on
children who are thus prevented
from putting down any real roots
in school,' church f and commu
nity?" he uked.
Because of "high pressure sales
manihip," Bunker declared, the
concept e( saving and thrift hu
been almost forgotten and a large
part of our population now lives
with its income committed for
yean in the future. '
He Mid the Red Cross should ex
tend its first aid and safety in
straction activities because of the
current do-it-yourself boom, which
be uid wu responsible for 600,
000 accidents last year.
"About 13.000 amateur carpen
ter! smashed their thumb last
year." Bunker said, "and 57,000
people banged themselves up
