They arrive by ship Wednesday. Scotland Yard received assur ances from leaders of 250,000 j Iron Curtain refugees in Britain ; there would be no violence. ! But it is the small percentage j of extreme fanatics that has ; made both Britain and Russian officials clamp on the tightest ; security regulations in the is land's history. Officials voiced frank alarm 1 at an attempt to burn down the Soviet Tass News Agency offices j in Fleet st. and the paint spat- j tering of the new Karl Marx monument in Highgate Cemetery : Sunday night.
