Messages Held Authentic.
Yesterday the Foreign Office i'm
lplied all three messages came from
France. It took the view that the
kilograms were authentic. although

writing of Burgess or MacLean.
The latest news gave rise to
a theory that the two may have
split up, although they left Eng
land together. Rome police said
they had been unable to find any
trace of Burgess there. They said
they were trying to determine
whether the Burgess telegram
actually was sent by him or by
someone else.
Thousands of detectives and
intelligence agents were engaged
in the hunt for Burgess and Mac
Lean. 1t bid fair to be the biggest
Imanhunt in European history.
No Documents Missing.
William Ridsdale, the Foreign
Office spokesman, emphasized at
his news conference today that
mo secret documents are missing
He was denying reports published
here that some secret papers on
Atlantic defense could not be
found.
Explaining the shift in the in
formation about the three tele-
grams, Mr.. Ridsdale limited that
Britain's secret intelligence and
counter espionage people were
clamping down tight secrecy on
details of the search-even keep
ing some information from the
Foreign Office.
In Paris, the French Ministry
of Interior branded as fantasy
reports that a British friend recog-
nized MacLean in a Left Bank
Hotel last Saturday night. A
spokesman said French police

Cuts in Funds Indicate
Non Defense Setup
Will Face Lean Year
BY the Associated Press

A Senate economy bloc ha
served notice that non-defenst
Government agencies probably vii
have to tighten their belts in ths
fiscal year starting July /.
The coalition easily won twt
tests in votes yesterday on thu
first fiscal 1852 appropriations bill
to come before the Senate-the
$2.5 billion Labor Federal Security
Agency measure.
Funds for the Office OF the
solicitor in the Department OF
Labor were cut by $94, AS, about
8 per cent.
An additional 100000 was
pruned from the item of salaries
and expenses for the Office o1
Secretary of Labor. This cut
amounted to % per cent. It was
adopted by standing vote.
Many more votes are scheduled
for Monday. The pending busi-
ness then will be an amendment
by Senator Ferguson, Republican,
of Michigan to cut all Federal
personnel items in the Labor Fed
eral Security bill by 10 per cent.
He estimates this will save SILT
million.
The Senate Appropriations
Committee, before sending the
bill to the floor, put in S per
cent cut on all salary items. Sen
ator Ferguson seeks to add an
other S per cent to that.
Senator Douglas, Democrat. of
Illinois had 20 other amendments
to offer which he estimated would
knock about $50 million out of
the bill. Some of these conflict
with the Ferguson plan because
they affect personnel.
One Democratic Senator told a
reporter the Republicans tried to
get the Ferguson amendment in
ahead of Senator Douglas pro-
posals to prevent the Illinois
Senator from getting the credit
for leading an economy drive.
