_I
Red - Tainted
Canadian Envoy
Commits Suicide
CAIRO, UR—Herbert Norman,
Canadian ambassador to Egypt,
killed himself today by jumping
from an apartment window.
A U. S. Senate subcommittee
once reported that Norman had
been a Communist, and this
charge recently was revived. Can
ada repudiated the charge, and
declared yesterday that Norman
had been persecuted in Washing
ton, D.C.
The Canadian statement said
the ambassador had suffered a
nervous collapse due to overwork
and “the feeling of renewed per
secution.”
Two letters, one addressed to
the Swedish minister in Cairo,
Brynolf Eng, and the other to
Mrs. Norman, were found in Nor
man’s pocket. In the letter to his
wife, Norman said, “I kiss your
feet and beg you to forgive me
for what I am doing.”
To Eng, Norman wrote: “I have
no option. I must kill myself for
I live without hope.”
Canada had protested the re
port against Norman made public
last month by the U.S. subcom
mittee. After the Canadian protest
Foreign Secretary Lester B. Pear-l
son told Parliament a 1957 gov
ernment security check gave Nor
man a clean bill of health on the
Red charges.
