Moscow, April 2.

Mr. Alan Monkhouse and Mr. Charles Nordwall, two of the British employees of Metropolitan Vickers who were arrested by the Ogpu and provisionally re- "leased, have been formally charged with military and

economic "espionage, wrecking activities and bribery.

The other four Englishmen, Messrs. Thorton (chief construction engineer), MacDonald, Cushny and Gregory are not mentioned in the charges, but it is now clear that all six will be tried by the Soviet courts.

It is rumoured in Moscow that the staff of the Bri- tish Embassy is packing, but Reuter is authoritatively informed that there is no foundation for the suggestion that the British diplomatic staff is leaving or is con- templating leaving. The position has not changed.
