screaming of interference with

he believes it is of pressing in

There is no need for him to re-

from parole requirements.
But his future remains a Dues

money and a name that is asso-

ordinary Britons. he will be SUBJ
Ject to the official secrets act
which denies him all access to
atomic and other closely guarded
military developments.
AS a member of the United
States -Canadian-B British wartime
team of atomic scientists. MAY
made four trips to the University
Iof Chicago's hush-hush atomic
laboratory in 1914. There he
learned some of the steps that
led to the building of Americas
first A-bomb.
Arrested in 1916.
He was teaching at Kings COL
Ilege in London when he was
placed under arrest in March, 1916.
The police waited until he fin
lshed a lecture, then took him
off to Jail.
May joined Britain's super
secret atomic program in April,
1912. The following year he went
to Canada to work in the United
States Canadian British atomic
program.
The physicist had returned to
London in 1945 when a young
Soviet Embassy clerk in Ottawa.
Igor Gouzenko, handed Western
authorities an armload of secret
Soviet documents that linked May
with an amazing Russian plot to
steal vital atomic secrets.

Russia should share the Vests

A Home Office spokesman, when
asked about the release, said
Icurtly:
"Dr. May is free man. Moth
ing further can be said.
Destination Is Secret.
The scientists immediate desti-
nation was as secret as his espion-
age activities seven and eight
years ago.
A Foreign Office spokesman said
May has not applied for a passport
to go abroad. But he added that
there is nothing in the law
against his getting one."
Anyway" the spokesman
added, there's no law against a
citizen leaving the country with
or without passport. It is up
to the country of destination to
demand proper papers"
AS prisoner number 6499, May
was described as a model inmate.
He earned the maximum time off
for good behavior. In the latter
months of his imprisonment he
held trusty's job as pay clerk to
prisoners. He played the piano
and was described as "the life
and soul" of a prison Christmas
party. He had been allowed to
read scientific books in his cell.

LangIois Bids for Rematch
After Draw With Cartier
By the Associnted Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-France's
Pierre Langlois headed back for
Paris today, but he promised to
return in a month or so to con-
tinue his bid for the vacated mid
dleWeight ring championship.
The 26- year = old Frenchman
battled Walter Cartier of New
York to a bloody 1O-round draw
last night at the Eastern Parkway
Arena in Brooklyn. Cartier was
a 2-1 favorite.
Langlois said he would have won
the bout except for his early slug
gishness brought about by poor
training methods. Despite a slow
start. the Frenchman rallied and
gained a popular draw.
He was bothered by an old cut,
which was reopened over the
bridge of his nose and cash over
his eye, which Cartier also aggra-
waited. Cartier was bleeding from
the nose when the fight ended.
Langlois said he would return
to the United States, probably in
February, and would welcome a
return bout with Cartier. Cartier
said he would be ready to fight
again In about three weeks.
Langlois has won IA of 80 fights,
% of them by knockouts.
