House ol Commons today. Macmillan was expected to face new political storm despite an earlier agreement calling for no1 more questions in public about former British agent Harold A.R Kim i Philby. Moscow confirmed Tuesday that Philby had defected to commu nism, asked for asylum in Rus sia and requested Soviet citizen-: ship. It described him as a lead ing" member of British intelli gence. On July 1 Lord Privy Seal Ed ward Heath identified Philby as the mysterious "third man" who had warned turncoat diplomats Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean they were under British surveil lance. Burgess and Maclean fled to the Soviet Union in 1051 afler years of security service in the British Diplomatic Corps. Shortly thereafter,- Philby was forced to resign because of his Communist connections. In 1055 Macmillan. then foreign secretary, told Parliament there was no hard evidence Philby tipped off Burgess and Maclean Later Philby was given a job on the London Observer, a Sun day newspaper, at the suggestion of the Foreign Office. He became the paper's Middle East cone spondent. Philby remained in Beirut until Jan. 23 when there were reports that he had disappeared. Heath said there was evidence he had worked for Soviet Russia before1 1946, and indications he had gone behind the Iron Curtain. In London, there were wide spread press reports that Philby had been sent to the Middle East as a British agent but that ac tually he was a "double agent" in the employ of the Communists The Soviet government newspa per Izvestia, which confirmed his defection, had claimed earlier this year that Philby's job was to help tile deposed Imam of Yemen regain his throne. Izvestia said at the lime that Philby was in the pay of American and British in telligence.
