Szwtron Buwsrss: As I under-
stand you had inquired of the Brit-ish Embassy here but they had nofurther information about the mat-
Ker?
St-zcaznunr Ac:-resort: I had in-quiry made this morning and thatwas the answer I got.
Sets.-.roa Brtiwsi: I have herethe latest, apparently, off the ticker,which says:News of their disappearancecaused it sensation in Paris dip-lomatic circles. Une high westerndiplomat exclaimed Oh, myGodl There goes the tripartiteles of the Big Four Deputies
meeting.if this is true, would that be a
matter within the purview of thehead of the American deslt, or the
Far-Eastern desk?
Szeaerasv Ac:-resort: I dontltnow how the British Foreign Of-ce operates. I imagine that if thisman had jurisdiction over relations

"s___, __._ ._ -,_- J.NCREDIILE, but true, nobody ques-
tioned this alleged failure of theBritish Government to notify theUnited States in the twelve-day in-
terval-May 25 to June 7, 1951-that elapsed between ight andpublication, nor did they questionthe reported ignorance of the Brit-ish Embassy in Washington whereBurgess had been stationed as re-cently as April of that year. Thestatements, if true, were shocking.We were at war and England was
our ally, but our Secretary of Stateheard it on the radio. We also, ac-
cording to his statement, had aSecretary of State who did notltnow the functions of the Ameri-
can Department of the British For-
eign Oieel The Congressmen didnot ask because they would notknow until September, 1955, aboutthe world-wide British security in-vestigation carried on throughout1950 and 195! because oi a Britishnding in I949 that secrets hadbeen leaked for years. Did Mr.Acheson itnow or was this itern-
which might have alerted I-Is-withhcld by our ally?So much for Mr. Acheson--and
the Ioint Committee which did not
even remind the Secretary that hehimself had tcstied that checkingon Allied reaction to hot pursuithad been limited to six nations be-cause this would be a military
operation which you would notwish to inform the enemy aboutand "it was probably a view of not

The "hot pursuit message, stating
that the United Nations Comman-
der had strictest orders about vi-
olations in Manchurian territory"
was dated November 13, 1950 and
was communicated to Great Brit-
ain. Burgess was then attached to
the British Embassy in Washing-
ton; Donald Maclean was head of
the American Department of the
British Foreign Oice. Either or
both could have supplied that and
other vital messages to the Soviets.
Burgess, moreover, may well
have been the source of rnuch elas-
sied information which leaked to
American newspapers in tl1osecriti-
cal months. Certain eolumns ap-
pearing in December, 1950, for ex-
ample, were almost literal record-
ings of orders and of policy papers.
By a remarkable coincidence, these
columnists labored to focus atten-
tion on Maclean and swept Bur-
gess under the carpet. Burgess cer-'
tainly had contacts with some oi
them as he had a background in
news and broadcasting work. _
However, none of this was the
concern of the American State Dc-
partment, which did not even ques-
tion the American brother-in-law
of Mr. Donald Maclean until Sep-
tember I953. This in spite of the
fact that he Iay Sheers, recently a
writer for the United Nations! had
been a security guard at Mutual Se-
curity Headquarters in Paris until
April 1951 and had visited Donald
and Melinda Maclean in May,
shortly before Maclean's ight.
1% Q-easéorw» Wm l /Lg yo;If the State Department is to be
believed, it had little in the les
and made the rst inquiry of its
own personnel the summer of 1956
in response to a Senate Subcom-
mittee request. The State Depart-
ment turned up no informationl
THE mttnsrt do seem to have be-
lieved that part of the story wasI; be unearthed in Washington._Sir
, head of M. 1. 5, Brit-
ish Intelligence, ew to the United
States and held talks with . Ed arHoover onjurie . t: -es-l '1-{ta is e reports also place Sillitoe
at the Pentagon conferring with
G-2. The results have not been dis-.
closed, but the FBI did take some92lilCUOl1. On lune 13, 1951, it sud-
denly withdrew from the Interna-
tional Police Commission, then
opening sessions at Lisbon and at
least one British paper Daily Ex-
press! assumed a connection. State-
ments appearing in papers also in-
dicated that the FBI interviewed
certain ex-Brtusli naturalized
Americans who knew the diplo-
mats. Presumably, the results of the
investigation remain in FBI les.
Certain government employees
who normally would have had
contact with the diplomats have
since been removed, transferred, or
have abruptly resigned, but in no
instance has a connection with
Burgess or Maclcan been publicly
established.
There is one new fact which has
recently emerged quite casually.§92l-5 .,ft _ l - .. _. _ ,

Truman admits in his Memoir:
pp. 374-5! that there was a formal
commitment with the British, made
prior to November 6, 1950, not to
take action which might involve
attacks on the Manchurian side oi
the Yalu without consultation with
the British. He also states that this
information was rst given Mac-
Arthur on that date in response to
his message ofjntent to harnh the
bridges. ls it jumping at conclu-sions to presume that this fatal
commitment was known to the
British Far Eastern expert at the_British Embassy in Washington
and to the I-lead of the American
Department of the Foreign Oice'in London~-and assuredly to the
Russians, the Red Chinese and the
North Koreans? When was the
commitment made? Truman does
not say. Its existence was pointedout" to him by Assistant Secretary
of State, Dean Ruslt.' '
Almost as a act-note to the gov-
ernrncnt's silence on the case is a
paragraph in an address by Secre-
tary of the Army 92Vilbcr M. Bruck-
er, February 1.7, 19% in which he
seems to largely overlook Burgess,
but does admit, for the rst time
in an address cleared by the Exec-
utive Branch of government, that
Burgess and Maelean damaged
American as well as British interests:
"lust last Saturday, the Sovietsnally unveiled Guy Burgess and
Donald Maclean, two prize pieces
of evidence of the deceit and treach-
cry which have so long been prin-'
eipal characteristics of Communist
tactics, and have brazenly Haunted
them in our faces. it is sobering-
indeed to reect that one of them
held a high position in the Britis
I nod of four enucal years, and knew, -
about some of our most closely
guarded secrets--secrets of priceless
value to the corntnunist conspira-'
cy.' It -_ provokes '_ equally serious"
thought to recall that for almost
- ve years the Soviet: have consist-;ently Idisclaimod any -_connoction'.,-; with either of these" men--have_'
sneeringly deniedthat they had
to the Soviet Union. This successful
subversive" operation, planned and
executed with consummate skill, -
well illustrates not only the vicious
jnature of the monster with which
- we must deal, but also the depths
of its penetration into the vitals of
the Free World. It is a startling re.-'
minder of the grim task ahead."
ow cm we ltnow unless weHIare told? Is there any reason
on earth why at this late date the
full story of Burgess and Maclean
during their stays in this country-
their functions, their access to
American secrets and their Ameri-
can contacts-should not be clari-
ed? Is anyone, including Mr.
Bruclter, reasonably sure that it
could not happen again?

When Mr. Driberiz quotes Bur-gess as saying that Maclean was
as rigid. austere. and uncom-promising as John Knox " the
reader can only give a great
horse laugh. i-' The Cairo break-down " of Macleani was the
sort or thing that could have

a Labour Foreign Minister, a

which we are living today.
Not Russia I Never Russia I
And that is the real theme of
this book. Upon the slender
story of Burgcsss lire he eats
[our eggs for his breakfast andwears an Old Etonian bow-tie ii
and the interesting narrative oi
the ight from Britain L5 hungthe continual suggestion that
the West is the sinner and
Russia the saint. It is theDriherg theme-song. '
It is that of Burgess too.
when he was at the B.B.C. he
saw to it that a "]l.llil1E$S"
series on fond was turned into
'Lci't-Wing propaganda. A series
on Spain gave equal time tooth sides. But Burgess c_ ~
rived that the Republican si e
hnuld be reported by the bett r.
peakers."
So that is how it is done
Mr. Driberg should not have4
Iven the game away. At o e
int he solemnly tells u :

that phrase. in the context of
this book. is delicious. ButDriberg is not being funny--atleast not intentionaly so.
Some statements will makethe reader aaueasy. One is that

We proceed to Mr. Di-ihergs

and to Burgesss statement that
he hopes to return to England
" when the hysteria of the Cold
War period has completely died
down."
Since Russia has restarted
the war by the murder or

This, you can have no dou ,
i. the real world which pr -
ced what may be called
rgcss-Maclean situation.
I do not think that Mr. Dri-
berg has told quite tl1e entire
st_ory_'not. at least, _so_far as
Mactean is concerned-but the
fact -is irrcvclant to all except
o_sc who are shouting about
ying to get the dirt"
vcryone.
What he brilliantly does
to prescnt- Guy Burge.
a ainst that background of Eng-
lis life which, by a tragi-
fa ical process that is nearly
Sh kespcarian in its blend of
the noble and the absurd, is
therefore totally convincing as a.
picture of a background, even
when you have made allowance
for the fact that some questions
are still unanswered.
That is the essential value of
what, if we may wheel on a
cliché. can truly be called a
document of our times."
Driberg has the
ability to let the times
speak for themselves. I my-
self, for instance, do not
agree with his theses and
interpretations. but one of the
reasons why this book is going
to be " must reading " [or any-
On interested in the politics
an --people of our age is that
the uthentic background of the
Bur ess-Maclean situation is fortk: rst time depicted for elitev w and ponder upon.
llt is a remarkable, even a
tremendous, achievement. T -
mentions I mean-speaking s
one newspaperman to another-
in that in this brief story Mr.
Dribcrg succeeds not only in
evoking the signicant avour
of the thirties and forties and.
early fties, but also in pro-
ducing some "news points "
about what really happened at
the decisive moment when the
policies of the British Govern-
ment werc making the German-
Soviet Pact inevitable. _
He points out, withta studied
casualness which underlines the
ensational character of his
iatcrial, that most of it-the
ateriai. that is, on the political
tuation in I939-has been b-
lished before, in the form of
oicial translations of captu d
German archives, but 92 s
scarcely noticed at the time of
publication because it did not
t in very well to the overall
- altern of the cold war p .
I have insistcct~perhaps over-
insisted 0n the background
painting which Mr. Driherg
does. partly because he does it
admirably, partly because he
himself makes clear that no one
can begin to understand the
nal. rip-roaring c0ps-and-
robbers climax of the Burgess-
lt-taclcan story with-out studying
that background.
But it would be unfair to
Mr. Dribcrg to give the impres-
sion-if I have given any such
impression»--that this is all back-
ground. without the hot ne "
about the actual escape of B IF"
gess and Maclcan which eve y-
one is naturally longing to he r.

Q .
P
B rgess sees itreally happen
is ll there. There for the t
THINK myself and
this is just one man:
o'-the-cutT opinion-that in I
natural and highly respectable
disgust at the way the British
press hounded these two men.
Mr. Dribcrg leans over hack-
wards in the other direction.
I dont, for instance, agree
withalthough I think he makes
a very gOOd and hard-to-argue
with casc-his view that homo-
sexuality was an entirely irreve-
lant factor.
By which I emphatically do
not meanas the press tried to
suggest at the timethat it was
a decisive factor. The things
that Burgess st-.92.=: as he leeka
at British life from Eton to
Bevin to Eden were in them-
selves quite enough to produce
the situation which nally sent
him to Moscow. But I still
think that homosexuality played
a biggerand more relevant-
role than Mr. Driberg allows it.
But, after all criticism has
been made, what we have here
is an indispensable contribution
to the history of our times. And
hatever else you may l
out our times, you can ot
u less you are half-palsied.d y
t t they are interesting.Not at all. The round- -
r und account of what-as G y

gan to prepare for the coming war. '
: In -Britain, apart from such obvious tasks as
3 rearmament and Civil Defence -- a small skeleton
;organisat1on for sabotage and propaganda was set up :
tit was known as Section Nine of the Secret Service.
3 This was the organisation that became -known_l;tter as"Baker-street." or. jocularly, The Baker-street_estapo.'
Till now Guy Burgess had done secret work on an
_ o asional and free-lance basis only. In December 1938 he-w s offered a regular Job in Section Nine.
Z He was so convinced that war was coming that he' d lded to resign from the B.B.C.. though he was,warned

Chamberlain and Wilson wer
