Nixon said today that two Soviet J spies were found searching nut U. S. secrets J in Massachusetts last fall while Soviet Pre j micr Nikita Khrushchev was talking peace in the United States. In Washington, it was learnrd two Soviet agents had been spotted but not arrested : in the area of Springfield, Mass., site of a C federal arsenal, a half dozen major defense j plants and a few milos from Westover Air ; Force Base, headquarters of the 8th Air ; Force. ; Sources said the fact the spies were not j arrested is in accordance with frequent counter-espionage practice. Federal authori ; ties often prefer to keep them under surveil - lance, in the hopes they will lead to detection ot their contacts or other espionage agents. t Nixon said In his speech that the spies had been discovered trying to obtain secret U. S. information in Illinois. His press secre tary later said the agents were apprehended in Springfield. Mass. Nixon had not mention ed the town but apparently made a mental reference to the wrong Springfield, resulting in the error. He said there had been other Russian spy incidents which he could not discuss be cause "it would expose our intelligence sources.' "Khrushchev could not have been sur prised or horrified when he learned of the U2," Nixon said. "There was no gap here in Soviet intelligence when he was here." In Washington, the Justice Department had no immediate reaction to the Nixon statement. The FBI had "no comment" but a spokesman added that it was checking into the matter. I Swiss Reject fJovief Protest 1 01 5py Ejection Bern, Switzerland - H'Pn -'. The Swiss government today rejected an "insulting" Soviet protest against the expulsion ' of two Russian Embassy of- ficials from Switzerland on , charges of spying. The Swiss simultaneously . rejected Russians demands for ' punishment of "those guilty of the gross provocation" and for assurances that it would . n't happen again. ; Ambassador to Moscow Al fred Zehnder delivered the . Swiss reply to the Soviet For , eign Ministry today. ; "The Soviet note contains ' allegations against Swilzer , land which are insulting and ' completely unfounded." the note del vered by Zehnder said. The Moscow note accused - Switzerland of plotting with 1 the United Slates to invent a . spy scandal to lake the heat off the United Stales at the ; height of Premier Nikila I Khrushchev's denunciation of .Washington for the U2 inci- dent. Moscow insisted the two ; Russian Embassy officials ; were innocent and "said Swit zerland had expelled them only to try to swing world attention from the U2 inci denl. It also accused Swiss police of brutality againsl the Jlwo itu.ssians. SpragueToVote For Rockefeller Salem - 'LTD - Charles A.
