PRAHA, C5echoslovakia, May 15.-
Government leaders, confronted by
recurrent reports Of an imminent Mani
putsch, expressed confidence today the
strong Czech system Of police and
constabulary could quell any threat
ened rising in Czechoslovakia's Ger
mAn-inhabited border strip In which
5000, 900 Germans dwell.
Danger Of . putsch, they asserted,
was more rumor than fact, but it
served to keep the government alert
They refused to share the alarm
periodically expressed In other Eu-
ropean capitals, where Csechoslovakia
is referred to as the probable next
battle ground Of the Europe e-wide con-
flict between left and right, which Is
tearing Spain apart.
Praha officials attributed most Of
tho alarmist putsch reports to German
efforts to create the impression abroad
that the German districts are close to
open revolt.
They believe there are enough So
cialists and Catholics among the Ger
mans In Czechoslovakia to break up
any subversive attempt that may be
made by the German majority group,
