Hungary Sees Possible Vogeler Release This Week

Vienna reports from AP reliable informants say Robert A. Vogeler American businessman jailed in Hungary on espionage charges may be released this week. Indications point to transfer to U.S. officials as early as Tuesday or Wednesday, though no promises were made. Vogeler, 38, a ITT executive, was sentenced last February to 18 years after pleading not guilty to espionage and sabotage. His wife Lucille Vogeler expressed cautious optimism in London after a May 12 meeting with Secretary of State Acheson, while Vogeler's father in New York voiced guarded hope. British associate Edgar Sanders, also jailed, is unlikely to be released now, and no swap deal involving Valentin Gubitchev is acknowledged by U.S. officials.
