Oct. 5--Paris newspapers to- day printed a piquant story of the plight of M. Bessedowsky, counsellor and charge d'affaires at the Soviet Embassy, who said he would leave the service of the Kremlin Govern- ment rather than return to Moscow, M. Bessedowsky was said yester- day to have been seen to jump com pletely over the garden wall of the Embassy with an agility not unusual- ly associated with diplomatic corps, and to rush breathlessly and some- what bruised to the police station. There he asked that his wife and child be rescued from their room inside the building. He said the door- keepers had threatened him with pis- tols when he tried to leave by the usual places of egress. He explained that an agent of the G.P.U,, or Soviet secret police, nam- ed Roisenmann, had accused him of heresies and had ordered him to re- turn to Moscow, Inasmuch as M. Bessedowsky is charge d'affaires in the absence of Valerian Dovgalevsky, ambassador, who has been in Eng land, the police decided to invade the extra-territorial property, They did so and secured Madame Besscedow- sky and his child, turning them over to the counsellor, who took them to a hotel. M. Bessedowsky's heresies, accord- ing to his story, consited of think- ing the Government ought to pay the peasants more for their wheat and charge them less for what they buy, and make the Soviet "more democratic."
