British Foreign Office
Denies Report Missing

Office denied today that British
secret agents have located missing
diplomats Guy Burgess and Donald
MacLean.
William Rldsdale, head of the
Foreign Office news department,
said reports published in two Lon
don newspapers this morning were
completely without foundation.
The Foreign Office kept silent for
hours after the reports first ap-l

Stories Quote Agents.
The newspaper stories quoted
agents of the British secret serv-
ice as saying they had located the
two diplomats who vanished with
out trace last May 25.

claimed they made no such state

the Foreign Office learned the
whereabouts of the two after

agents and Western European

municated with his American
born wife Melinda who is va
cationing with their three children
on the French Riviera.
The Herald is The newspaper of
the governing Labor Party and has
close government connections.
Whereabouts Not Indicated.
The Conservative Daily Graphic,
in dispatch from Paris, said the
same story was current there and
added that Mrs. MacLean had left
her Riviera villa for a secluded ,
spot in the Var Mountains, so
miles away.
Neither story gave any hint
where the men supposedly are and
did not indicate one way or an
other whether they have disap-
peared behind the Iron Curtain.
The French police said Mrs.
MacLean told them she had no
idea Of where her husband is now,
and that she had received no mes
sage from her husband during her
vacation.
The two men have, been the
quarry in one of the greatest man
hunts of modern times since they
disappeared May 25. J.
MacLean, 38, was chief of the
American section of the Foreign
Office and Burgess, 40, had just
been recalled from Washington
after frequent brushes with the
police over traffic violations.

no evidence they took any secret
documents with them, but the

report definitely will recommend
that a Senate committee investi-
gate crime and alleged corruption

Complicated by Interstate Angle
The crime committee, which
goes out of existence tomorrow
has not yet decided which COM
mittee should take on the Dis
trict crime probe and the chances
are it will steer clear of that
question.
Senator Wiley wants the Senate
Commerce Committee to make
the District investigation. The
commerce group is due to inherit
the rest of the crime committee S
work.
The other contender is the Sem
ate District Committee, which
passed a resolution last April to
investigate crime here but never
got the $50,000 needed to finance
the job.
Complicating the picture is the
interstate angle of any crime in
veStigation here. Seantors who
want the Commerce Committee
to do it contend the District Com
mittee could not cross State lines
to subpoena witnesses, but advo-
Gates of the District Committee

Money Compromise Possible.
Chairman Neely of the Senate
District Committee is known to
hold high hopes that the Senate
Rules Committee. which holds the
purse strings. will agree at it's ses-

District Committee enough money
to proceed with the crime investi.
