SENTENCE ON AMERICAN SPIES Foreign Despatch
Praga (PAP)
The trial of several Czech spies and traitors who, with the.
cocperation of the U.S. Embassy members, organized a network of
espionage centers equipped with arms and secret radio transmitters
in Czechoslovakia, ended on.April'22nd before a Stste'Court in
Prague.
After a four-day trial the Court announced the verdict,
sentencing ex-Major NNehansky and V.Wahl, a student, to death,
M.Sprysl, an ex-official to life imprisonment.,. K.Loric,, a former.
glass factory director, to twenty five years' imprisonment,
U.Dohmalk,"a former official in the Ministry. of roreign Affairs, to
twenty years' imprisonment. and, Z.~rackova, a former official, to
r-i_ghteen years' imprisonment.
bile motivating the verdict, the L'hiaf Justice emphasized
the substantial participation of the U.S. Embassy officials
accredited to the Czechoslovak Government in the activities of
o)sp;ionage and subversive organizations in Czechoslovakia, and
stated that the espionage network created by the defendants was to
play the role of a fifth column in Czechoslovakia,,

PHYSICIANS' TEAMS VISIT
P11tODUCTION C0-OPERATIVES. Dornastic Despatch
The medical care campaign embracing the rural population,
and especially members of production co-operatives and laborers
on government estates, initiated-by the Ministry of Health is
developing on an increasing scale.
Physicians' teams, composed of,.specialists in. every branch
of medicine, visit farming districts every Sunday and inspect
the state of?the peasants' health. I. many cases minor surgical
operations are made. In more serious cases sick people are sent
to county hospitals where they are assured of excellent medical
care and full board.
On April 23 a team of physicians from the-Ministry of health
and the Ministry of National Defence visited a production co-
ope-rative in Dzierzazna village in Plonsk county, where medical
-dvice or treatment was given :in about; 100 cases. In more serious
e'ed.
?ement will degrade France to the role of an American dominion
and the French army will be transformed into colonial troops of
minor value or rather into a 'sort of American gendarmerie, directed.
against the people and peace adherents. For out-dated American
arks, the Government is ready to offer French blood.

Many a time we have heard solemn protestations coming from
renegade Tito, s lips, to the effect that he h Q remained faithful-
to socialism, nay, even to "communism"....
Well the, let us tote a look. -- not on the basis of document s
published by the Ccminfprm or scme suchlike, but on the basis of
documents published by Zito himself, ._ let us see what this.'
"communism" and connection with the people looks like at close
range and in. .a c tua l practise.
The document in question is strictly official and most authenti-
cally itoist. It is simply t~~hy: Jo, .rnai of Laws, published in
a
Be~ .L.~;r ^r~ e anno d ~~lla.~ i. 1950. t us find out, in this most official
Burnal the most official list of candidates for th mbersh.ip in both
houses of the itccratic parliament; let us compute the definitions
of the occupation, listed beside their names.
She total. of 620 members of both houses will be made up of the
following items:
(.l) ministers, -,rice-Ministar.s and premiers of the. several
f ads ral, republi cs - 117 members; ambassadors and diplomatic
dignitaries of va s a pus .deg e s - ?4. "ltoge ther 141 Indic iduals
This means that members of the government ,ynd diplomats, all of whom
are officially ncm,inated by Tito himself, will make up 23 percent
of the entiro membership of both houses of parliament.
2) 36 candidates are members of presidiums of parliaments of
the regional repullics
3) 110 candidates are mayors of towns. ar.d cities, and sirni
reprosentat vas of the administrative machinery (i percent).
+) 90 are, for a change, hi :her government officials,
) 69.are highEr officials of the federal machinery.
6) 37 rare gonorals and 23 are colonels(forming 1,0 percent of
"
) .
mbership of both "houses of parliament
7) 48 approximately 7 percent* are, after all (long live the New
York .,. "imacrt- ExPcrt Bank"',), workmen, even though..three fourths of
these workmen have as much in common with labor as Zito h-s -? with
socialism.
8) 38 (approximately 6 percent* are, after all. (long live the
new U.S. rabassedor to Atocr?cy), peasa ts, evert though very,
vaO.id ones.
T 9) Hstl..y, the 38 remaining candidates for membership of

miscellaneous organizations,. a sprinkling of writers, artists, and,

I C N MEN OIL p.J t?. .
ticle
One of,the 91"ring s vi:3ences of economic antagonism existing
between Great Britain and the United States isthe oil war, which is
assuming steadily sharpening forme.
B- the end of December Ine British Government has withheld the
.American import of liquid fuel With the exception of gasoline. (petrol)
the latter being limited to 1/3.
For far of a strop re-a..etion on the part of the U.S. the ban
on importation of. American liquid fuel was modified and, a "substit--
ution?" plan was announced, with a view to officially restricting
dollar expenses connected with the import of liquid fuel to the
sterling area.
The ,British oil concerns encounter ever growing difficulties in
finding buyers for their products, which fact is due to a shrinkage
of.impor. t in the capitalist countries, and tq drastic restrictions
of liquid fuel consumption in Great Britain. The Britishers apply
three kinds of measures,
of 'irect pressure on sttrling
bar conclusion of bilateral trade agreements,
by cur oncy restrictions..
In the U. S. they are afraid most of all to lose foreign markets.
The U ,V . con.eurns have always used the:; it hover.nment to serve
them in their. Tight ar;ain:at ii..'uropo n competition.

apparent, by now, that. losses resulting from, the U
moves, will considerably outgrow t :e profits d. rived from the very
problematic savings of 50 to 60 million dollars; Great Britain will
.most likely capitulate this time as often used to be the case hither-
tg and on the more r ert..ous questions.

The International Refugee organization was created, for
repatriation of citizens from occupied countries who had been
deported. by the Germans during the war
The I.R.O. has fulfilled its tasks ori.ly to a slight extent,
shortly after its creation it was transformed into an office re-
for underpopulated countries and instead of en-
k

tiarg wor
cru_ti..cout aging D.. P s to return to their coun.tri ps, and providing them
with the necesser, ffacilities a campaign was launched against their
returning home. he funds destined for repatriation purposes were
used to counter-ac 4i the mO

campaign. Ve he'Te quoted in our press le ttrs from Poles who were
sent to :Canada for clearing wild forests, lhe affair of a, hundred
Polish- girls el=J cyed by a Canadian land=owner, Mr .Dionne, on
conditions planing them at his mercy was also given due publicity.
Many Polish, Czech and other citizens deluded by recruiting
slogans are still being.ordered about by foreign agents instead of
working for their own country.
In spite of its e''fcrts the I.R.O has not been able to resettle

"Welfare letter of instruction No.2-", a fragment of it-running as
follows:
"It is our duty to,make clue to some persons and their,families
that there exist pcs a bil it .as for individual persons for resettle-
ment .; whereas whole families cannot be afforded this op ortunity.
It is desirable that such faiii:L ies should. take a sober view of the
situation and that individual persons should consider. the advantage
of being able to lc;eve their families instead of remaining with
them ih such territories e Germany, Austria, Greece, Lebanon, e1 c.
To avoid misu rderstandin.g the said anstructioll goes. on to explain:
"Such persons (selected refugees) can understand that by settling
