Probe Narrowed
To Room Where
Pair Employed
Washington -tUPD-Two turn
coat U.S. code clerks, brand
cd as sex deviates, were link
ed today with an investigation
of how the Russians were
alerted to the ill-fated U2
flight.
This was certain to be
key topic in two congressional
investiagtions of the defection
to Russia of Bcrnon F. Mit
chell and William H. Martin
employees of the top secret
national security agency
Mitchell and Martin, long
time bachelor pals, were said
in a published report to have
fled to Moscow when a U.S.
and NATO investigation of
the U2 episode narrowed
down to the cryptographic
room where they worked.
Tipped on Flights
The New York Mirror said
it learned from intelligence
sources that the inquiry look
ed into the possibility that
someone told the Russians
how to break U.S. codes so
they could find out where U2
planes were flying or that
someone tipped the Russians
on the reconnaissance flights.
A U2 was downed far In
side Russia May 1. The pilot,
Francis Gary Powers, con
fessed to spying and was sen
tenced by a Moscow court to
10 years confinement. Russia
used the incident to wreck the
Paris summit conference and
step up the cold war.
The Mirror said in a dis
patch from Washington that
Martin and Mitchell com
plained to a congressman be
fore the May summit confer
ence about U.S. spy flights
over Russia. Rep. Wayne L.
Hays, (D-Ohio) indicated he
probably was the lawmaker
involved.
Reports Visit
Th newspaper said the con
gressman reported the visit
to the State Department
which relayed the story to the
U.S.-NATO investigators.
Chairman Francis E. Walter
(D-Pa.) of the House Commit
tee on un-American Activities,
which will hold one of the
Martin - Mitchell investiga
tions, linked the men with the
U2 case last week. :
Walter said Thursday Mit
chell and Martin were known
to their acquaintances as "sex
deviates."
ADDRESSES SECURITY COUNCIL Newly-appointed
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, James J. Wads

Thursday. Discussing the possibility of serious negotiations
on disarmament at the coming session of the General As-

the Assembly is far too large a forum and the issue is too
involved for serious negotiation; he said.

Campaign Quotes
By UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL
Vice President Richard M. Nixon (views relayed by press
secretary Herbert G. Klein, while Nixon remained in a Wash
ington hospital): "We don't regard religion as an issue. The
vice Dresident has taken the attitude that the best way to
keep it from becoming an issue is for the candidates not to
discuss it."
Nixon "doesn't believe a man's religion is any bar to
public office. He doesn't believe anyone should endorse him
on the basis of the religious issue."
Nixon (letter to Sen. John Sherman Cooper, R-Ky.): 'I
wholly support the present tobacco program and- if elected
president, I will recommand that it be continued without
change.
Sen. John F. Kennedy (aboard campaign train in Cali
fornia): "There is no new Republican party and no old Re
publican party. There is only the same Republican party
whlrh for half a century, has opposed every single progres
sive measure Which has been designed to improve human

tried to halve the Fair Deal and that is trying to keep us
from new frontiers.) But they have never succeeded in the.

Turncoat Invites
Parents To Visit
Him in Russia
Eureka, Calif. - lUPf) - A
turncoat U. S. code clerk has
invited his parents to visit
him in Russia.
The invitation was contain
ed in a cable which Bernon
F. Mitchell, 31. Thursday sent
to his father, Emery F. Mitch
ell, 65, attorney.
Mitchell said it was the
first message he had had from
his son since he and another
code clerk, William Martin,
Ellensburg, Wash., went to
Russia several weeks ago.
Text of the cable:
"Dear father, if 1 have any
regrets in leaving the United
States and defecting to the
Soviet Union, they only con
cern the resulting harassment
and suffering you and mother
must be enduring.
Speaks of Courage
Your refusal to join in the
chorus of , public condemna
tion led by the United States
administration until you have
had a chance to hear from me
directly speaks of your faith
and courage. No son could
ever hope to know a more
loyal father. Yet the contin
uance of such loyalty without
an understanding and accept
ance of our differences would,
I feel, be needlessly painful
to both of us.
"Your trust in the United
States administration and
equal distrust of the Soviet
Union is not shared by me.
Your honest efforts in the
accumulation of a small for
tune in common stock all
seem to me consistent with
your unfailing support of the
Republican party.
"My sentiments arc
pressed in the statement I
have prepared to explain our
actions.
Extendi Invitation
"If these differences in our
outlook are understood, then
please accept my invitation
for you and mother to visit
me In the Soviet Union. I shall
meet you half way In the cost
of the trip. This can be ar
ranged by witing me. Love
Bernon."
The elder Mitchell indicat
ed he and his wife would not
visit their son. Nor was he
decided whether to answer
the son's cable. He refused to
give the son's address.
"What can we say? What
can we do?" th distraught
father aaid.
