Queen's ex-adviser unmasked as a spy Rosweli (N.M.) Daily Record Friday, November 16,1979 91 LONDON (UPI) An elderly knight who was Queen Elizabeth's adviser for 20 years has been uiv masked as a Soviet spy and the "fourth man" in an espionage ring that penetrated British intelligence and passed U.S. atomic secrets to Moscow. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, in a bombshell announcement in Parliament Thursday, identified the agent as Sir Anthony Blunt, 72, whose confession of spying in the 1940s and 50s has been a government secret for 15 years. Buckingham Palace said his knighthood was canceled effective today. Blunt's whereabouts were not known.

A possible "fifth man" whose name was raised in parliamentary questions was British-born physicist Dr. Wilfred Basil Mann, working as a radioactivity expert for the U.S. government in Washington. The dramatic revelation about Blunt came in response to questions in the House of Commons. The inquiries were sparked by a new book about Guy Burgess and Donald Maclean, two British Foreign Service officers who escaped to Moscow in 1951 after their espionage was uncovered.

A "third man," Kim Phiiby was another member of the spy ring. He defected to the Soviet Union in 1963. British newspapers today quoted Mann, 61, as strongly denying the charges raised in Parliament. He worked as atomic attache in the British Embassy in Washington at the same time as Phtlby and Burgess, bet ween 1949 and 1951. If he is linked to Blunt, Mann would be the "fifth man" in the Burgess- Maclean-Philby-Blunt case.

Blunt's neighbors in London said the tall, aristocratic art historian who was art adviser to the queen until he retired in 1978, left hurriedly Wednesday with a pile of suitcases. According to a confession Blunt made in 1964, he was a "talent- spotter" for the KGB, the Soviet secret police, since the 1930s when he was a teacher at Cambridge University, where he recruited Burgess and Maclean, who were students. Mrs. Thatcher said Blunt confessed only in return for a promise of immunity from prosecution, and the confession had been kept secret for the past 15 years. In the confession, Blunt said he passed secrets to the Soviet Union after he joined British intelligence in World War II, and aided the defections of Burgess and Maclean.

The spy ring was held responsible for stealing U.S. atomic secrets from the British Embassy in Washington during and after World War and passing them to Moscow when the Soviets were desperately trying to catch up and make their own A-bomb. Blunt's whereabouts were not known but there was newspaper speculation he would eventually surface in Moscow to join Mac Lean and Phiiby who still live there. Burgess died shortly after defecting. In Moscow, Maclean refused all comment on Blunt.

He told a UPI reporter: "I know why you're here. You see I really have nothing to say." Blunt served the queen and her father, King George VI, as guardian and chief adviser on the priceless royal art collection from the end of World War II until he retired. Buckingham Palace said Thursday there was no question of him having had access to secret state documents while he worked there. Andrew Boyle in his new book, "The Climate of Treason," did not name either Blunt or Mann as subjects, but supplied circumstantial evidence that two Soviet spies codenamed "Maurice" (Blunt) and "Basil" (Mann) in the case had never been exposed although British and U.S. intelligence had identified them.

Sen. Russell Long, said the Senate bill, which would raise only about half the revenue proposed by House legislation, puts a heavy tax on old oil and a lighter tax on newer crude.

"This is equitable and it also is good economics," Long said. Senate opponents of the windfall tax told reporters earlier the Senate probably would not finish acting on the bill until mid-December at the earliest.

Imetlment Properly WenlW MOREHEAD CITY, N.C. (UPI) Two thousand Marines who left last month in the glare of national publicity about a possible confrontation with Cuba returned today to the United States, where attention has shifted to the crisis with Iran. The Marines, who began unloading their equipment from three ships at dawn, have spent the last four weeks at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, America's only base in a communist country. They were sent there after the presence of Soviet combat troops in Cuba was revealed. President Carter, in a national broadcast, said at the time the United States would stand by its commitments in the Caribbean.

The Marines staged a reinforcement exercise at the base. Officials seek relief for Iran TEHRAN, Iran (UPI) Relief officials working in the earthquake- stricken areas of northeast Iran appealed today for blankets and heating lamps and asked volunteers to donate.cash instead of food. The relief effort entered the third day with volunteers still headed for the stricken areas with their own supplies of food and clothing for the survivors of Wednesday's powerful quake that officials estimate killed at least 600 residents of 14 villages. Authorities however advised volunteers to stay away, contending the presence of a large number of volunteers itself might pose problems in the ravaged areas around the tremor-prone Qaen regon. Miss Bermuda wins Miss World title LONDON (UPI) Miss Bermuda, a 21-year-old coed studying wine- making at the University of Wisconsin, was elected Miss World 1979 over a field of 70 international beauties.

Gina Swainson, dark-haired, brown-eyed and a statuesque 5-9, with 36-24-36 measurements, received the crown Thursday at the Royal Albert Hall from her predecessor, Silvana Suarez, who won as last year's Miss Argentina. She said she is studying oenology the science of wines and winemaking "because my family owns a wine business in Bermuda and I find it very fascinating." Miss USA, Carter Wilson, 23, a tall, brunette model from Richmond, was eliminated in the semi-final round after being one of the final 15 contestants. Pot Nixon may be home for holiday SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. (UPI) Pat Nixon's "spirits are high" and doctors at San Clemente Community Hospital say the former first lady should be home for Thanksgiving. Mrs.

Nixon, 67, who was hospitalized Tuesday for treatment of bronchial pneumonia, remained in good condition today. Former President Richard M. Nixon visited his wife again Thursday, this time carrying a bowl of fruit and a radio. The Nixons' younger daughter, Julie Eisenhower, also visited the hospital Thursday. Corporation, directors plead innocent WASHINGTON (UPI) McDonnell Douglas Corp.

and two members of its board have pleaded innocent to charges they concealed more than $7 million in overseas payoffs. U.S. District Judge Joyce Green set a June 16 trial date after hearing innocent pleas Thursday from McDonnell Vice President James McDonnell III and Douglas Aircraft Co. President John Brizendine, both members of McDonnell's board of directors. The 11-count indictment returned last week charges McDonnell defrauded the U.S.

government by failing to disclose in filings with the Export-Import Bank that it made payoffs to private and government officials in South Korea, the Philippines, Venezuela, Zaire and Pakistan to win contracts. massive unearned profits oil companies will realize between 1980 and 1990 due to President Carter's decision to deregulate domestic oil prices. Administration officials have criticized the committee bill for exempting so much oil from the tax. Administration officials claim the Senate bill should toughen the tax bite another $118 billion by eliminating the exemptions for oil discovered since last January, on heavy crude and oil so difficult to extract it must be flushed from the ground, and on the first 1,000 barrels per day produced by stripper wells. "I think a careful analysis would justify the committee's decision," Long told colleagues.

"Exemptions should be examined on their merits, not just on revenue figures." A recent Congressional Budget Office report said the Senate committee bill would stimulate more domestic oil production than the House windfall tax, which would tax all types of oil to some extent. The Senate has reached a complex formula to help the poor finance soaring energy bills and expects to add it to the windfall oil profits tax bill. Late Thursday, the Senate reached agreement on a program to provide $7 billion in federal aid for high heating costs in the North and air conditioning in the South over the next two years. Emergency aid totaling $1.35 billion for the current winter already has been enacted. The formula, which Senate leaders propose to add to the windfall tax bill on the calendar for today, was approved 69-14, ending three days of feuding between frostbelt and sunbelt states over how to distribute the funds.

The bitter fight over heating aid foreshadowed a tough windfall profits tax battle likely to last the rest of this month. It faces filibuster threats, an effort by Sen. Edward Kennedy, to scrap it in favor of tougher House legislation, and other attempts by liberals to toughen it and conservatives to weaken it before the final vote is taken. The tax is intended to capture for the Treasury some of the unanticipated $650 billion oil companies will make between 1980 and 1990 because of President Carter's order decontrolling domestic oil prices. The Senate Finance Committee bill would raise $138 billion in windfall revenues, about half that which would be raised by the House windfall version.

About $70 billion would go for heating aid, $23 billion as tax credits for energy conserving homeowners and businesses, and $15 billion to finance urban mass transit systems. The House bill would tax all categories of oil. The Senate committee bill would lose $118 billion in revenue by exempting newly discovered oil, viscous crude and other oil so hard to get it must be flushed up, and the first 1,000 barrels of oil from wells that produce less than 10 barrels daily.
