Recollection Is Kuzzy The 82-year-old head of Soviet studies at Yale told newsmen he remembered little about the young man who stopped him in front of Moscow's Metropole Hotel about 7:25 p.m. Oct. 31 and asked, "are you an Ameri can citizen?" He half remembered that the man spoke in English, but he wasn't sure. He recalled that as he accepted the papers he thought they must be some Kind of propaganda material Barghoorn said he was hand cuffed and taken first to po nce station ana uien to orison Soviet officials confronted him with the papers and said they contained "military secrets." Some of the contents "looked like photographs," Rarglioorn said, but he didn't understand what they were about because "I've never had any military He was told that the "young stranger" had also been arrest ed, but he never confirmed this and never saw the young man again. Why had it happened? "It Is true." the Drofesjnr said, "that I go about talking to people and taking notes. In fact I have some of the note books In my pocket right now." "The definition of intelligence in the Soviet Union," he said, "differs widely from the defini tion of Intelligence in the Unit ed States." He explained that he had been interviewing Russians on such subjects as political indoc trination, which the Russians might consider "sensitive." Also, he said, there had been a period between 1949 and 19S1 before the death of Stalin when he had done "intelligence" work for the State Department, interviewing Russian refugees in Germany. Barghoorn made trios to Rus sian in 1956, 1958, 1959, 1961 and twice In 1963. He said the Russians wanted to discuss all of this past travel so "there was quite a lot to talk about." House Committee Hears Senator on Soviet Wheat Sale WASHINGTON (UPI) - The Senate .Banking Committee to day Kept its pledge to Sen. Karl Mundt, R-S.D., to consider nis proposal to bar use of gov ernment creau to underwrite Wheat sales to Communist na tions. Mundt was called as the lenH. off witness at a hearing this morning. Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon was to follow him at an afternoon session to give the administration's views. Mundt offered the proposal as an amendment to the foreign aid bill last week, but withdrew It after being assured that the Banking Committee would act on the measure bv Nov. 25. His decision removed the last ob stacle to Senate passage of the loreign aid mil. The Mundt measure would prohibit the export-import bank from underwriting or guaran teeing short-term loans to the communists to finance proposed sales of surplus U.S. grain. At one point during his fight for the controversial amend ment last week, Mundt modi fied his proposal to include all manuiacturcd products and all arm products, as well wheat.

Scranton had an ap pointment today with Sen. Barry Goldwater to talk about politics in Pennsylvania where Goldwater backers have sur faced to challenge Scranton's favorite son candidacy for the Republican presidential nomina tion. Goldwater's position, an nounced at a Pittsburgh news conference last week, is that he is not a candidate now and has no responsibility for discourag ing political activity by his friends. Scranton was expected to call on the Arizona senator late to day after a flight by private plane from Harrisburg. He re quested the meeting. His request came after Gold water supporters in western Pennsylvania began making noises about running pro-Gold-water candidates for the GOP National Convention delegation in the Republican primary next April 28. According to reports here, similar activity may develop soon in eastern Pennsylvania. Scranton is regarded by Re publicans as a possible pres idential nominee in case of a national convention deadlock. He repeatedly has denied that he would be a candidate but has agreed to go to the conven tion as a favorite son candidate of the Pennsylvania delegation. He reiterated this week that he was not a candidate for na tional office in a message de clining an Invitation to enter the Maryland presidential pri: mary next May. In Pennsylvania presidential primaries, candidates may be entered directly in popularity contest voting which is not bind ing on national convention dele gates. However, delegates elect ed in the same primaries may run as uncommitted or pledged to a candidate for the presiden tial nomination. Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Crai Truax, a Scranton backer, issued a statement last week end urging Pennsylvania Re publicans to send an unpledged delegation to the convention. The recent Goldwater activity is attributed to the national draft-Goldwater organization.
