Naval intelligence agent drawn into spy case during testimony
In Los Angeles on March 7, Antis Salich testified that an associate in naval intelligence knew of his dealings with Mikhail Gorin, an associate of a Soviet travel bureau. The judge denied a motion for a directed verdict of not guilty, dismissing some charges against Natasha Gorin while keeping others pending. Salich described Gorin offering money for information on Japanese activities near the Pacific coast and said he warned that his statements could expose weaknesses in U.S. defenses, as another government witness noted Gorin’s interest. The proceedings highlighted alleged contacts between Soviet agents and local officials amid the case’s evolving charges.
