Reurlet 4/18/66, one copy each of which is So
for New York and Washington Field Offices,
The Bureau does not agree with your suggestion that
the review of Bureau files and the files of the New York and
Washington Field Offices should be expanded to include the
names of 85 Americans who attended Cambridge University during
the years 1930 through 1934. These are the years during which
the subject, Donald Maclean and Guy Burgess attended that
echool, As you were toald this list is incomplete and covers
only t period and yet it
impinr Hy} If file reviews and
inquiries are directed to all Américans who attended those
two schools during that period it will mean investigation of
over 500 American citizens with no basis for such inquiry in

As an example of the above, the Bureau has located
a book entitled "Register of Rhodes Scholars 1903-1945"
published by Geoffrey Cumberlege, Oxford University Press,
41350, This book ghows that from 1930 ~ 1939 there were 32
Rhodes scholarships per year awarded to U. §&. citizens making
a total of 320 individuals who attended Oxford during that
10-year period, Thus, from this source and the incomplete
records we have of Americans attending Cambridge from 1930 to
1934 we have a total of 405 names,
