Cain Says Soviet
7 ried to Hire Risk
Suspect as Agent
Suspended Worker Spurned Bid
To Spy, SACB Member Reveals
BY L. EDGAR PRINA

At least one Government en-
ploye under security suspension
without pay has been approached
by a Soviet embassy official to
engage in espionage.
Others among the hundreds
of Government workers who are
out of jobs pending suitability"
determination may also have
been approached by the Rus
slams. and some may have sue
cumbed to the opportunity to
earn living for their families.
These assertions were made
yesterday by former Republican
Senator Harry P. Cain in a
speech before the Jewish Labor
Committee in New York.
Mr.. Cain, member of the
Subversive Activities Control
Board, said the man approached
by a Soviet agent had been out
of work for IA months pending
a final decision by his agency.
The Red offer. Mr.. Cain said,
came in response to a want ad
in which the suspended employee
offered himself for any kind of
work for which he was. qualified,
temporary or permanent.
Sought Aircraft Data
The man who approached the
suspended Federal employee rep
resented himself as a University
OF Maryland graduate student.
He said he needed assistance in
preparing a college paper. Among
the data sought by the man. &C.
cording to Senator Cain, were
tendency of the aircraft indus
try. major companies and their
industrial capacity and aircraft
production.
After hearing what seemed to
him a suspicious offer, Mr.. Cain
said. the employe went to law
enforcement officials who shove
him a sheaf of mug" photo
graphs. He identified one as the
man who approached him, and
the authorities informed him
that the man, in reality was a
translator at the Russian en-
bassy.
The employe then filed affi-
davits with both law enforcement
officials and the agency which
had suspended him, Mr.. Cain
said. The affidavitS made full
disclosure of the encounter with
the Soviet agent.
Despite this. Mr.. Cain re-
lated, the employee received not

declared. This creates an at

stock for 1857, with the ex-

The supply of Colorado Blue
Spruce appears to be large
enough to fill all requests. The
supply of the other conifers is
limited. In the broadleaf trees
and shrubs, honeysuckle and lilac
will be in limited supply. Others
are PLENTIFUL. The Russian Olive
may be in shorter supply than
last year but will be large enough
to fill all requests.

1855 Sc Wheat
Exports Highest
Since 1851 81

Wheat and flour exports dur
ing the year ended June 80 to-
tailed more than $40 million BUSH
els of wheat or wheat equivalent
the U. S. Bureau of the Census
reports. The census report con-
firms an earlier estimate by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
The export figure for the year
just closed is the highest since
the marketing year 1882 when
exports totaled ATS million BUSH
els. For the 5-year period fol-
lowing World War II, ended
June 30,I950, exports averaged
AIS million bushels and for the
5-year prewar period ended June
80, 1889, the average was As mil
lion bushels. Exports in the 1854
SIS totaled 274 million bushels.
Commenting on the past years
wheat movement, USDA's For
eign Agricultural Service states:
"The outstanding features of
the Nations combined exports of
wheat and flour during the sea-
son just ended were the large
increases in exports to African,
Western Hemisphere, and Asiatic
markets. Especially noteworthy
were the increased shipments of
wheat to Egypt, Brazil, Japan,
Pakistan, India, and French North
Africa, and the increased exports
of flour to Indochina and Vene-
Zuela.
Despite greatly reduced ex-
ports of wheat to the Federal
Republic of Germany, Yugoslavia,
and Norway, total sales of wheat
and flour in European. markets
during the year amounted to 1913
million bushels grain equivalent
compared with 1859 million a
year earlier. The increase was due
mainly to increased exports of
wheat to France and the Neither
lands. Total exports of flour to
countries amounted 20
81 million bushels grain equiva-
lent in 1856 compared with 6.8
million bushels in 1954-55, main
because of substantially in
creased purchases by Italy and
United Kingdom"
