Germans Speed Up
POliCemen's Trial
For Czech's Death

Prakue, June 16.-(AP)-The
trial of two German policemen
on charges of Staying a Czech
policeman, Johann Mueller,
week ago at NachOd, opened
today before a special tribunal
in Prague. Defendants and wit
nesses were brought to Prague
this morning for proceedings in
the regular court building. The
prosecutor said the verdict would
probably be announced about
midnight.
A representative of official
German and Czech news agen-
cieS was permitted to attend.
The names of the accused men
were not announced. The Sche-
duled sWiftness in handling the
case was regarded in Czech
quarters as an effort to demon
strate impartiality in the Ger
man administration of the pro-
tectOrate of Bohemia and Mora
via following stern restrictions
imposed on the town of KIandO
after the killing of German
policeman. The KladnO killer

any action on it this session. Re-
spending to questions at a press

public debt. He said he was study

WPA Changes
In Relief To
Be Modified

Washington, June 16.-(AP)-The
House Appropriation subcommittee
III charge of the $1,716,000,000 relief
bill voted today to modify some Of its
proposed changes in the WPA pro-
gram in an effort to head off an i'm
pending floor fight.
The subcommittee approved, in
addition to some clarifying amend
ments, four changes in some of the
provisions which have aroused the
most opposition.
Specifically, they propose to change
the $4,000 limitation on WPA build
ing construction projects so that the
agency could spend up to $4,000 on
Federal buildings and $4,000 OF
federal funds on non-federal pro-
lects Sponsors contributions would
be in addition to the latter amount.
The controversy complicated plans
OF the House leadership to whip the
measure through before nighttall.
Other developments:

working gradually toward ending the
practice of giving jobs in payment
OF political debts. That was his COM

posed 81 ,000,000,000 cut in the pub
