OTTAWA (CP)-A Russian dip- lomat was ordered out of Canada and a Canadian civilian air force worker was fired in the crack-up new Soviet manoeuvres to glean Canadian military secrets.

Booted out of Canada was Gen- nadl F. Popov, dark-haired. med- ium sized Russian embassy second secretary. Fired from his clerldng job at the Rockcllffe air station on Ottawa's outskirts was James Stanley Staples. 30. Whole disclosures led to Popov's forced withdrawal.

These developments, which re- called the Igor Gouzenko spy un- coverings of 1945, were made pub- lic Monday following demands of the Pan-Canadian Anti-Commu- nist League that the Canadian government exercise greater con- trol over Russian embassy opera- tions.

The league's secretary - treas- urer. Pat Walsh of l,,abrleville. Que.. said in a brief made public at Quebec City and Montreal that soviet bassy officials have vi- olated diplomatic propriety on a number of occasions.
