German Conspiracy
To Kill Benes in
i. 5. Is Charged
Doto Said to Have Been
Sent Ex-President
By Poris Envoy
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
PARIS, May 20.-Diplomatic
sources here said today that Stefan
Osusky, former Czecho-S -Slovak Min
lister to France, had forwarded to
ex-President Eduard Benes infor-
nation Of Nazi-fomented plot to
assassinate DR.. Benes during his
current residence in the United
States.
On Prague responsible Czechs
said they had heard no suggestion
that the German Gestapo-secret
police-had been involved in any
plot against DR.. Benes. They said.
however, they had heard rumors
that elements in America opposed
to DR.. Benes already had made
an attempt against him.
DR.. Benes, who resigned as
echo-Slovakias President after
the September partitionlng of tina,
now vanished republic at Munich
is lecturing in the United States.
Osusky was said to have turned
over all his information to French
and American police authorities
who were making investigations.
Data Comes From Prague.
His information was described a.
coming from secret agents ir
Prague and was said to include
charges that the plot was fomentec
by the Nazi secret police in the
Czech capital.
No independent confirmation O.
the reported plot was obtainable
from other sources.
Benes arrived in the United
States February II for a three.
month lecture series at the Uni
versity of Chicago. April 10 he &C.
cepted leadership of a d-wide
movement to free his native land
most of which was absorbed int
the German Reich two months ago
Early this month telephonec
threats against him caused guards
to watch him closely when he spoke
at Fort Wayne, Ind.
Although the Czecho-Sloyak Re-
public was broken up in March, the
French government still accord,
Osusky diplomatic status.
Diplomats said that the informa
tion sent by Czech agents in Prague
to the Legation here and now in DOS
session of French and American au.
thorities alleged that Nazi agents fo]
several weeks had been seeking 6
disgruntled Czech or Slovak who
would carry out the assassination.
Aim to Justify Protectorate.
Such an attempt, Czech source.
said, would be for the purpose o,
showing that Czecho- -Slovakia hae
been oppressed by the Benes regime
and that Germany was justified ir
establishing her protectorate ovel
Bohemia and Moravia, most impor.
tant sections of the former republic
According to the information
reaching Osusky, diplomats said, the
intended assassin would first have
slipped into France as a refugee anc
from here made his way to the
United States.
French police were understood tc
be keeping careful watch on the
frontiers, while in the United States
unobtrusive but careful guard wa.
reported to have been placed about
Benes.
