Czechs and S|ovaks
In j. ). Start Move
To Free Homeland
International Congress
Projected to Restore \
Their Republic
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 30.-Plans TO,
an international congress of Czechs
and Slovaks were projected today
as an initial step toward restoration
OF the republic of Czecho- -Slovakia
Bohus Benes, nephew of Dr.. Ed.
uard Benes, former President of the
republic, told a mass meeting of
Slovaks last night the congress
would be held in Chicago or New
York within a month.
The primary purpose of the con-
gress. he said. would be to unity the
Czech and Slovak populations of
the Americas behind the new in
dependence movement.
The ultimate goal, he added, was
the "re-establishment of free
Czecho-Slovakia in a 1ree Europe. y
1nasmuch as most of the dele
gates to the congress would be Am
erican citizens, Benes said, no plans
for formation OF provisional
Czecho-Slovak government in the
United States were under considera-
ton
Former President Benes, in a
statement read to the mass meet
ing, likened the present movement
to that which eliminated at Pitts
burgh 2l years ago in the founding
Of the Czecho-Slovak nation.
I'VE have today the same pro-
gram which we had and which we
finally realized during the World
War with President T. G.. Nasa-
ryk." Dr.. Benes said. To-day we
shall follow the same program
again.
"A new struggle for the independ-
ence of CZechs and Slovaks must be
carried out thoroughly. The safety
of slovaks was and will be possible
only in a united Czecho- -Slovak
state and in unity between Czechs
and Slovaks'
