Senate Probers To Make Secret Spy Data Public Gouzenko Data Will Be Made Public By Senate Committee WASHINGTON. VP—Senate investigators today prepared to make public hitherto secret data on Communist infiltration supplied by Igor Gouzenko, former Russian code clerk in Canada whose disclosures broke an atomic spy ring.. The senate internal security subcommittee, it was learned, was readying a summary of information obtained by the FBI", from Gouzenko when the former Russian embassy code clerk talked to U. S. and Canadian authorities in 1946. The FBI included®'some of Gouzenko’s data in its now famous report on "Soviet espionage in the United States" which to high officials in the Trumans administration beginning late in s£s. The subcommittee has subsequently made public some parts of that document. Informed sources said the subcommittee plans to' make public more of the FBI document, including hitherto secret information suplied by Gouzenko. The nature of the information was not disclosed, but—frpm published portions —Gouzenko Is known to have identified Communists in high government positions and described Russian attempts to get U.S. atomic secrets. Informants indicated that the new material to be made public tjy the subcommittee will include references to alleged Communists on the staffs of the late secretary of state Edward Stelllnlus and Fleet Adm. Ernest J. King, wartime chief of naval operations. The subcommittee readied its summary as Gouzenko himself, in a copyrighted dispatch »published by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, stated that he has changed his mind and does not now want to testify before the Internal security subcommittee. He stated that an appearance before the subcommittee might jeopardize the safety of his own family, now under the protection of the Canadian government. The - subcommittee is to meet Wednesday to decide what to dol about its attempts to question Gouzenko. The Canadian government, pressed by the U. S. state department had agreed to let U.S. investigators question him but reserved the right to determine what information might then be made public. The subcommittee also subpenaed William Ullman to testify Wednesday. Ullman has been named in a number of FBI documents—including the 71-page espionage report—an adjunct of the espionage ring which, according to the FBI, also included former assistant secretary of the treasury Harry Dexter White. \ Illinois Man Killed l In Head-on Collision SCHNEIDER, Ind., UP — Homer A.
