Navy Man Gets Life

Execution

NEW YORK, Aug. is (AP)--
Nelson C. Drummond, "a, o
Navy enlisted man with access
to top United States and allied
defense secrets, was sentenced
to life Imprisonment today as.
a Soviet spy. He could have
been executed.
For five years, the 17-year
Navy veteran from Baltimore
met with Russian agents both
here and abroad. The FBI
trapped him with six secret
documents in company of two
Soviet officials.
Convicted July 10 of conspir-
ing to commit espionage, Drum
mond was sentenced today by
Federal Judge Thomas F.
Murphy.
Appears Shocked
A stockily-bui Negro, Drum
mond appeared shocked as he
heard the sentence. He tightly
gripped the edge of the table
against which he stood.

a most awful crime" Judge
Murphy told Drummond. who
could have received the death
sentence. you have sold the
security and the safety Of your
country for $4,000. and you
did this while a member Of the
United States Navy"
AS the judgespoke, Drum
moud's wife, Lucille, sat in the
first row of spectators in the
crowded courtroom.
The first Negro convicted as
a cold war spy, Drummond
stood trial twice on counts of
conspiracy to commit espionage
and attempting to pass infor-
nation to the Russians.
The first trial ended In q
hung jury and the second
brought conviction Of con-
spiracy, but acquittal of the
other charge.
Seized In Car
Drummond was arrested last
September % in his car outside
a diner in Larchmont, N. Y, at
a rendezvous with two Of the
four Soviet officials named In
the Indictment as co-conspira-
tors, but not tried.
He had driven = tailed by
FBI agents = from his office
with an electronics unit at the
Newport, r. l., naval base where
the FBI had watched him take
Navy documents from a locked
filing cabinet.
The Soviet personnel named
in the indictment returned to
their homeland under the cloak
of diplomatic immunity.
Pointing out that he could
impose the death sentence,
Judge Murphy told Drummond:
Because Of compassion for
your innocent wife and the
true devotion Of your family.
I sentence you to imprisonment
for your natural life"
Contacts Listed
The prosecutor, Assistant
United States Attorney Vincent
L. Broderick, outlined a five
year history of Drummond's
contacts with the Russians, be-
ginning when he was stationed
in London.
He did this very simply for
money" Mr.. Broderick said.

on the stand bespoke a man of
cunning and intelligence. not
