LONDON. June 4-—(APJ—SC0l.- lnml Yard disclosed today that several prominent Britons had “ri- ceived through the mail envelope! containing a watch-like mechan- ism and a bag of explosive powder —a plot that London papers rm- medlately dubbed "murder by post."

The carefully-made booby traps were mailed from Italy. The Press Association said the missives ap- parently were “another attempt by Jewish terrorists to intimidate responsible people in Britain."

None of the envelopes explode-i because the recipients all became suspicious when they found a bulky cream-colored packet en- closed within tho cuter cover.

Scotland Yard tieelined to ltamc the persons who received the ex- plosives. However. MaL-Gen. sir Edward Spears, foe of Zionism and prominent advocate cf the Arab cause i-n the Middle East. voluiz- tarily disclosed that he was one of the recipients.

Gen. Spears said he could “jolly well Bhess" that the envelopes came from a Jewish underground organization in Italy, where the Stern Gang recently claimed re-

sponsibility to-r an explosion 1n the British Embassy. The Press 'Association reported

that one of the packets was ad-

hcad cf the Board of Trade. and the Evening Standard said an- other was sent to Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery. chi-sf of the Imperial General Staff.

The Press Association report said the envelopes were still ar- riving and “it is expected that most of the eabl-net as w-eil as ‘leading figures in high adminis- trative positions will be receiving these missl-ves."
