British Atom Scientist Pontecorvo Aids Russia
Bruno Pontecorvo, the Italian-born former British atom scientist, is reported by Izvestia and Pravda to have worked in Russia for years. He appeals to peers in the United States, Canada, Britain, Italy, and France for a world ban on atomic weapons and peaceful use of the atom. He says his wife and three children accompany him under political asylum, and denies kidnapping. Observers suggest he may be at a Russian research site, with ties to Britain’s Harwell plant. The story links him with Klaus Fuchs and notes the latter’s imprisonment for passing secrets to Moscow.
