Speculate Russians aided Blake
LONDON—(UPI)—Speculation grew today that a super secret Russian organization operating under the very nose of British security officials had engineered the prison escape of master spy George Blake, the man who betrayed Britain's own spies to the Kremlin.
THERE WAS no comment from Scotland Yard on the reports but it placed a "discreet" watch on the Soviet Embassy, on Russian ships in the Thames and on Iron curtain country planes leaving England.
Press reports today said Blake was responsible for the death or imprisonment of at least 40 of Britain's most important foreign agents and that the number of lesser spies betrayed to the Kremlin may never be known.
Tarzan and Jane hidden in booth
NEW YORK — (UPI)— Acting on an anonymous telephone tip, policemen today found Tarzan and Jane in a telephone booth in Brooklyn.
The two chimpanzees, stolen Friday night from the Prospect Park Zoo where they were great favorites of visitors, were reported in "good spirits and excellent physical condition."

WASHINGTON — (UPI)— The clatter of clean-up crews replaced the sound of debate in the corridors of the Capitol today, but the arguments lingered on over the merits of the 89th Congress and its works.
Congress adjourns; leaders argue merits
Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield, Mont., described its two-year course as "extraordinary in every sense of the word."
But that was not the way the Republicans saw it. House GOP leader Gerald R. Ford, Mich., called the 89th's 10-month 1966 session "the spendingest" in the nation's history. It appropriated $145 billion, a total exceeded only by the 78th Congress' $147 billion in 1943, the peak of World War II.
FOR BETTER or worse everyone conceded that the 89th Congress did a lot of work:
- Medicare: Established a government hospitalization insurance program for those 65 years and older.
- School aid: The federal government was authorized for the first time direct aid to elementary and secondary schools.
- Rent subsidies: Included in a $7 billion, four-year housing bill a provision permitting the government to help the needy live in decent housing by paying part of their rent.
- Department of Housing and Urban Development: Created an 11th Cabinet post.
- Presidency: Approved proposed constitutional amendment that spells out the duties of the vice president during presidential disability and provides a means of filling a vice presidential vacancy.
- Voting: Enacted a civil rights bill specifically designed to enable more Negroes to vote.
- Wages: Raised $1.25 hourly federal minimum wage to $1.60 by 1968 and covered 8 million more workers.
- Department of transportation: Created a 12th Cabinet department.
