Defected Soviet Spy Gives U.S. Information on Red Espionage
According to one report, this information has been turned over to the FBI and, in some cases, has resulted in the arrests of important Soviet bloc agents operating against the Western world outside the United States.
The Goleniewski defection, though it apparently occurred six years ago, was the second reported within a matter of weeks. Last month, the United States granted political asylum to Yuri A. Nosenko, described as a "staff officer" of the KGB, the Soviet Committee on State Security—Russia's all-purpose intelligence agency.
U. S. intelligence agencies were said to be still maintaining their contacts with Goleniewski. The FBI and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) refused to comment on any aspects of the case.
WASHINGTON — (UPI)— A Soviet secret police defector, now living in New York, has been feeding U.S. intelligence agents since 1958 with information which has led to arrests of important Red spies abroad.
It was learned yesterday that the defector, a Pole identified as "Michał Goleniewski" came to the United States in 1961. He previously had been in contact with U.S. intelligence sources in Poland.
THE RED AGENT was given the name of "Goleniewski" after arriving in this country with his wife to conceal his true identity. He was understood to be living somewhere in New York and has provided much information to U.S. intelligence.
NOSENKO, WHO defected from the Soviet delegation to the Geneva disarmament conference, was brought to the United States. A Russian embassy official in Washington was allowed to question him as was an official of the Swiss embassy but he insisted he wanted to stay in the United States.
Nothing has been heard about Nosekno since that time and it is believed he is undergoing "in-depth"
THE JOURNAL American story said Goleniewski, naming names, had "provided Washington with details of what looms as a greater scandal than the famous Alger Hiss case."
The dispatch, among other things, credited him with breaking the Irwin N. Scarbeck "sex and secrets" spy case in Warsaw in 1961. Scarbeck, an official of the U.S. embassy in Warsaw, was blackmailed by a beautiful Polish woman spy.
interrogation by U.S. intelligence agents about his life and duties with the KGB.
In a copyright dispatch yesterday, the New York Journal American said that Goleniewski had been a high-ranking operator in the KGB and had informed U.S. officials that Moscow had placed active "cells" in the CIA and the State Department, both in Washington and overseas.
ASKED ABOUT the Journal American story, White House press secretary Pierre Salinger said: "The White House doesn't comment on intelligence matters." It was understood elsewhere, however, that the story was not consistent in all respects with accounts of the episode reaching Washington.
Hiss, a former State Department official, was sentenced to prison for perjury as an outgrowth of the now-famous "pumpkin papers" spy case which catapulted a young congressman, Richard M. Nixon, to national prominence in the late 1940s.
The Journal American said Goleniewski's "shattering disclosures" included one that the KGB had been able to infiltrate U.S. embassies in all important cities abroad as well as "every U.S. agency except the FBI." However, this was one aspect of the story challenged here.
The Journal American story described Goleniewski as 41, husky, handsome and resembling "the Hollywood prototype of the suave, lady-killing spy."

New Hampshire Primary Attracts $2 Million Outlay
CÓNCORD, N.H. — (UPI) - The cost of the New Hampshire presidential primary will be more than 2 million.
That is big business in New Hampshire and partly because of it not many New Hampshire residents would be willing to give up their position as the first presidential nominee shake down.
The cost of the March 10 primary is expected to be one of the highest per voter in any major election and virtually all sections in the state are sharing in the outlay.
Each of the 150,000 or so voters will have cost the state, television networks, newspapers and wire services and candidates about $13.
To look at it another way, the cost of electing 14 of the 1,200 GOP national convention delegates and 20 of the 2,000 Democratic delegates boils up to about $60,000 per delegate.
Only $50,000 of this comes from the state coffers for manning the 302 polling places and preparing the ballots. The rest is being spent in getting elected and reporting the returns.
The candidates, Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, Senators Margaret Chase Smith and Barry Goldwater and former Minnesota Gov. Harold E. Stassen are criss-crossing the state almost constantly.
Rockefeller and Goldwater are expected to reach their legal spending limit of $100,000 and the other candidates, with the exception of Mrs. Smith, will spend hefty amounts.
And major write-in movements are costing the supporters of Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge and Richard M. Nixon.
About 50 reporters and television-radio crewmen have been following the candidates like shadows since January and their number will multiply several times.
ter status” to handle the flood of service requests.
Cullen says 200 technicians will be on duty round-the-clock during the primary to service a master switchboard that equals the size of boards in most small cities and will handle direct lines to polling places as well as radio-television communications. Sixty micro-wave dishes have been erected to beam television signals out of New Hampshire.
Edward H. Cullen, in charge of setting up telephone communications, estimated his costs on facilities and manpower alone at about $1 million.
The New England Telephone and Telegraph Co. has gone on "disas-
been blocked by the CIA from testifying on espionage matters before Senate or House committees although the Pole and many lawmakers were said to favor such a course.
In addition, the Journal American story said Goleniewski had been "thwarted by amateurs and, Stalinists, in the CIA and even kept from communicating his plight to responsible higher officials here."
Judges for the event will be Miriam Stewart Hamilton, assistant professor of voice; Mrs. Theodore Johnson, wife of assistant professor of organ and theory Theodore Johnson; and Clayton Krebbiel, assistant professor of music education and choral music.
Groups from the residence halls will compete for seven trophies in six group categories and overall production.
This year the KU Spring Sing will be in co-operation with the Association of University Residence Halls (AURH) new project, Spring Fling.
The contest will be at 3:30, March 22, in the Ballroom of the Kansas Union.
