Tom Driberg to learn from him the details of his extraordinary meetings in Moscow with Guy Burgess,
The Foreign Office wants to know. Yet the question is being asked: Should the Post-Herald 'print Mr. Driberg's 'story of Guy Burgess-the first authoritative story of the flight to Moscow of the Mission Diplomata?
Some people are saying that Burgess is a traitor and that, therefore, anything he says should be ignored.
Even the B.B.C.'s "Any Ques tion?" programme debated the problem: "Was it 'imprudent' for a British citizen to associate with Guy Burgess in Moscow?"
The Post-Herald's answer to all these points is simple: IT'S NEWS.
It is five years since Burgess and Maclean left England. Nearly all that has been so far written about their case has been speculation. Only now has one of the two principals involved given füs version of what actually happened in this astonishing affair,
The story that Mr. Driberg has completed will prove absorbing to all shades of opinion.

"As remarkable as the escape itself are the revelations of the influences which were at work before, during, and after the war in some of the most respected British institutions, including the B.B.C. and the Foreign Office.
The Post-Herald has, no sympathy with the activities of Guy Burgess or Donald Maclean.
The Port-Herald has no sympathy with the politics of Mr. Driberg,
But the Post-Herald fully agrees with Mr. George Scott, editor of the Right-Wing weekly review Truth, who said on the "Any Questions?" programme: “As a joumalist be [Mr. Driberg] has nothing but my eavy for the story he has gained in Moscow, and I believe in it not just as a newspaper story, a scoop, or Womething like that, but something of the utmost value to us all."
That explains precisely why the Post-Herald is enthusiastic about the Burgess story The completed story will total some 40,000 words. Each fact has been checked wherever pouble against the record. Each revelation in being compiled with pirktinual, known history, E
