was the more talkative but
both appeared relaxed and
confident In the glare of tele
vision lights and camera iiasn
bulbs.
Their sudden appearance In
Moscow recalled the case of
two British diplomats, Guy
Burgess and Donald Maclean,
who dropped out of sight in
1951. They stayed hidden un
til 1956 when they announced
their defection at a Moscow
conference. They still live and
work in the Soviet Union as
editors In the foreign langu
ages publishing house.
Martin told newsmen that
both were studying Russian
and preparing to enter a uni
versity. He charged that the United
States regularly reads secret
communications of Italy, Tur
key, France Yugoslavia, the
United Arab Republic, Indo
nesia, Uruguay and other na

Mitchell said he and Martin
had conferred with a U.S. con
gressman before defecting,
discussing with him the dan
ger of reconnaissance flights
over or near the Soviet Union.
He declined to name the
congressman, saying "he can
name himself if he wishes."
They said, however, that
the U2 flight had nothing to
do with their decision to leave
the United States.
Martin snld he had been
told by a high NSA official
that an American plane shot
down by the Russians over
Armenia In 1958 had "delib
erately violated the Soviet
border."
Confidential Rout
Both refused to divulge
how they reached the Soviet
Union.
"That Is our affair and ir
relevant," Martin said. "If we
Indicated our route, it might
hinder someone else In the
future from taking the same
route."
.Soviet newsmen laughed
and applauded.
Asked whether his work
in the NSA was to decipher
radar intercepting informa
tion from U.S. networks
abroad, Martin said no but
that he had "consulted with
those who did such work."
"I read their reports and
saw maps of the Soviet Un
ion indicating the routes of
planes flying around and over
the Soviet borders and we dis
cussed all aspects of their
work freely," he said.

porter to give their opinions

"for tne last eignt years ... we nave had a govern

"We must recapture the spirit of Franklin Roosevelt and
start moving forward to finish the unfinished business je

Henry Cabot Lodge (to a New York City news con

poses, there is no better place to deal with propaganda
than the United Nations."
To a meeting of GOP community leaders:
"The United-States should be willing to contribute gen
erously toward bringing ... a settlement of Arab-Israeli
differences about. It would not be easy and no miracles
should be expected but a thorough-going attempt should
be made . . .
"The effort to reach such a settlement with justice and
fairness to all should be undertaken at a high level."
Fractional Losses

The post-Labor Day tone

While some brokers spoke
of the market's "improved"

wary of last week's specula
