Many remember his name in the
history of the American film.
His counterspy activity in many
countries took him to the conti
nent 68 times. Accompanying his
travels, he has command of eleven
languages. Many of the languages
are Arabian like Tartar; he said
that his father wanted him to be
a diplomat.
In his counterspy service he
used a personally concocted
code. It consisted of words com
prised of letters from differtnt
languages Greek, Arabian, etc.
Morros talked casually about his
intrigues, inserting an anecdote or
friendly gesture at various times.
He concluded his talk with more
.serious words when someone ask
ed about the American tdane shot
down in Kussia."
Don't he surprised," he said.
"Don't be naive. Of course we are

U.S. Pledges To Aid Allies
Which Base American Planes
WASHINGTON (AP) The United States pledged yesterday to
go to the aid of its allies which might be attacked by Russia for
allowing American spy planes to use its air bases.
At the same time, the State Department accused Soviet Pre
mier Nikita S. Khrushchev of waging a campaign of threats and
intimidation against small countries innocent of any wrongdoing.
The State Department fired this double-barreled reply to
Khrushchev's threat to aim Soviet rockets against any foreign
bases which serve as takeoff or landing points for intelligence
flights into Russia.
Spy Plane Pilot May Be Tried
MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Union notified the United States
Tuesday that Francis G. Powers, pilot of the American spy plane
downed deep inside Russia on May Day, "will be brought to ac
count under the laws of the Soviet State."
This indication that the pilot may undergo a trial for espion
age, probably not long after the end of the Summit Conference,
was contained in a stiff protest 'delivered through the U.S. Em
bassy. The Soviet Government protested what it called the "Espionage
reconnaisance flight" of Powers' high-flying Lockheed U2 jet.
Johnson, Cannon Defend Position
WASHINGTON (AP) Sen. Lyndon. B. Johnson (D-Tex) and
Rep. Clarence Cannon (D-Mo) drew warm applause in the Senate
and House yesterday for stoutly defending the U.S. position that
Russia makes it necessary for America to spy on her.
And Cannon declared that the American spy plane captured
May 1 was not shot down, as Russian Premier Nikita S. Khrush
chev has claimed, but was forced down by "some unforeseen and
unavoidable mechanical or psychological defect." The plane and
pilot evidently were both taken uninjured, he said.
