'''Jones Orin York''' was recruited in California by Soviet spy Stanislau Shumovskij approximately in 1935. In 1950 York told the [[FBI]] that he had passed secrets to the [[KGB]] since the mid-1930s including plans for a new airplane engine of his own design and documents on the newest fighter developed by Northrop Corporation. York told the FBI that his KGB handler during 1941-42 had been [[Bill Weisband]], who had helped him buy a camera for photographing documents. York admitted he was in it for the money, although he received very little.
York's allegation was disturbing news, implying that the KGB had a mole in the sensitive [[Armed Forces Security Agency]] (AFSA).
York's code name in Soviet intelligence and in the [[Venona project]] is "NEEDLE".
