State Department softness balks in Mott case
John Chamberlain argues that U S officials failed to trade Newcomb Mott for Igor Ivanov and criticizes Washington for being soft while the Soviet side is hard. He cites the Mott death on a prison train after a Soviet trial for illegal entry and contrasts it with Russia releasing two fishermen who strayed ashore in Alaska. He quotes Dr E J Felderman alleging Mott was murdered and calls the State Department soft, the Soviet Office tough in border cases.
