The men were Mikhail Gorin, 34, a Soviet citizen directing the bureau, a travel agency, and Hafis Salich, 35, reported to have been an agent of the United States naval in- telligence unit.
 Gorin was reported to have talked by telephone three times with charge d'affairs Constantine Oumansky of the Soviet embassy in Washington, since the arrests Monday night. The final call was reported to have lasted IS minutes and to have originated in the jail here.
 Gave Defense Plans
 The federal agents would say only that Salich was accused of supply ing Gorin with confidential nation al defense plans and naval informa- tion concerning Japanese espionage in this country.
 As Gorin, 8 former official in the Soviet consulate here, is Russian citizen, authorities were said to fear he might attempt to flee the coun- try.
 The specific charge was violation of title 50, section 32, of the federal code, by communicating and trans mitting to agents of a foreign gov- -ernment documents, writings, instru- ments and information relating to United States national defense.
 Penalty in war time is death; in peace. 8 maximum of 20 years in prison.
 Handicap Prosecutors
 Such flight, it was recalled, han dicaped government prosecutors in a recent New York spy case when suspects took refuge in Germany be- fore they could be brought to trial. They refused to return and only minor figures in the governments case were prosecuted.
