Unmistakable Russian Make
MYSTERY OBJECTS FOUND
ON SEA BED Cabinet Minister
New York, Jan. 13.
A number of large radioactive steel devices of "unmistakable Russian mako” havo been found imbedded in the occan floor off both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the North American continent. Newspaper columnist Robert S. Allen wrote in the New York Post that some of the devices - discovered by the American and Canadian navies were within the three-mile limit of both countries.
Naval authorities thought they were position markers to be used by Soviet submarines in a case of nucleur missile attacks against coastal cities, he said.
PLANTED
The columnist said it was believed the devices had been planted by Soviet freighters and submarines which had been observed in coastal waters during recent
years.
He said a decision to place the matter before the United
Nations was under consideration.
Washington officials did not wish to publicise the dis
coveries at present because this would be "inadvisable during the visit of the Soviet Deputy Premier, Mr Anastus Mikoyan."--Reuter.
