OVER MUNSINGER CASE REQUEST OTTAWA (CP)--The United States governmeni has been placed in an awkward position by the request of the Canadian government for information on Gerda Hessler Munsinger. Should the U.S. supply such information, knowing that it could be used for political ends? A precedent exists for any re- fusal to pass security informa- tion between Ottawa and Wash- ington. It was set by Prime Minister Pearson when he was external affairs minister in 1957. Frau Munsinger, central fig- jure in an alleged sex-and-se- curity case here, was barred entry to the U.S, in 1953 and came to Canada in 1955. She lived in Canada nearly six years, Justice Minister Catdin says the German woman had been | engaged in espionage work for) the Communists. Davie Fulton, servative justice his recollection. of the RCMP Munsinger file is .that she was not considered a se- curity risk while in Canada. And he has noted that the Lib- erals were in power in 1955 when she was admitted If the U.S. has information that Frau Munsinger was a genuine security risk in 1953, it} would tend to support Mr. Car- din's contention---though not ex- |plain why she was admitted to ithis country RETURNS Chester Ronning, 71, who returned, Tuesday from an unheralded trip to Saigon and Hanoi to discuss the war in Viet Nam, waits at his Camrose, Alta., home, 40 miles southeast of Ed- monton, for instructions to report to Prime Minister Pearson.

SEE PRECEDENT The precedent for refusal to pass along security information lies in the case of E, Herbert Norman. Norman was Canadian am- bassador to Egypt in April, 1957, when he jumped to his death from the top of a seven-storey Cairo building after the U.S. Senate internal security sub- committee revived charges against him that he was or had been a Communist. It turned out that at least part of the subcommittee's in- formation on Norman had come from a 1940 RCMP report passed to the U.S. Federal Bu- reau of 'Investigation in 1950 The RCMP discredited its own original report--and told the FBI so--three mouths later in 1950 after Norman had been called home from Washington for special security check. Why the subcommittee used the first RCMP report and dis- regarded the second, if it ever received it, has never been es- tablished. Neither has it been determined who leaked the orig inal RCMP report to the FBI to the subcommittee In any event, Mr. Pearson-- his parliamentary secretary at the time was Mr. Cardin--fired off a stiff note to the U.S |Nowlan To Avoid House | Till Next Week At Least whether a security risk was: pos sible and whether the case was adequately dealt with at the time by John Diefenbaker, then prime minister Mr. Nowlan's father, George Nowlan, was a prominent min-| ister in the cabinet of Mr. Dief- enbaker at the time.
