are

report
with

thereto
as
the
evidence
has
not
been
fully
developed,"
the
Prime
Minister
said.
The
Commission
said
it
was
reporting
four
persons'
names
because
the
investigation
into
their
part
of
the
spy
ring
had
been
concluded.
The
report
made
no
reference
to
charges
which
might
be
laid
against
the
persons
named
nor
did
it
refer
to
nine
other
persons
known
to
have
been
in
custody
since
the
investigation
was
jnadc
public
February
15.
Later,
however,
Mrs.
Woikin
was
arraigned
in
magistrate's
court
and
pleaded
guilty
to
providing
information
to
Russian
agents.
The
other
three
did
not
enter
pleas
or
elect
how
they
wished
to
be
tried.
The
report
said
that
the
evidence
established
"a
network
of
undercover
agents
has
been
organized
and
developed
for
the
purpose
of
obtaining
secret
and
confidential
information,
particularly
from
employees
of
departments
and
agencies
of
Dominion
government
and
from
employees
of
the
office
of
the
High
Commissioner
for
the
United
Kingdom
in
Canada."
It
is
disclosed
that
these
operations
were
carried
on
"under
direct
instructions
from
Moscow"
by
"certain
members
of
the
staff
of
the
Soviet

The

A
British
newspaper,
The

says
the
Iranian
situation
likely
will
be
brought
up
again
before
the
next
meeting
of
the
U.N.O:
Security
Council
on
March

The
article
terms
the
Soviet
delay
in
withdrawing
from,
some"
Persian
provinces
"the
most
serious
crisis
since
the
war."
It
adds
that
Russlamay
either
stay
completely
out
of
the
next
council
session
or
send
a
less-important
representative
than
Foreign
Commissar
Molotov
or
Vicc-Commlssar
Vlshlnsky.
The
Iranian
political
undersecretary
of
state,
Prince
Firouz,
says
Soviet
troops
are
staying
in
troubled
areas
of
his
country
as
a
"friendly
gesture."
He
points
out
that
in
Azerbaijan
there
is
no
central

official
to
accept
the
Soviet
'installations

says
