But reporters found Maclean still in his Moscow apartment Wednesday evening. He declined to make any comment as Scot- land Yard's action.

Burgess and Maclean were 41 and 40 when they disappeared from their London home May 25. 1951. Maclean was head of the British foreign office‘s.

They declared they went to Russia to “work for the aim of better understanding between the Soviet Union and the West having both of us become con-i vinced from official knowledge in our possession that neither the British nor. still more. the American government was at that time seriously working for this aim." —-——

Livestock production. dairy production has been effcc» ‘ted and the drastic fires of 1960 lall add up to backing for the claim that western Prince County should be considered as

The president said he upecta the federal grand jury investi- gation of the recent steel price increases to go on to determine whether there were anti-trust law violations. But he said the success of his plan for all elements of the economy to pull together leaves no room “for any feelings of hostility or vin- dictiveness."
