seized $4,000 prisoners along the
former eastern front Wednesday
through yesterday, including As Ger

Czechoslovakia was accomplished by
Marshal Ivan E. Konev's 1st Ukrain-

east of Pilsen, and by Marshal
Rodion Y. Malinovsky's I'd Ukrainian
Army below Prague in the area
northwest of Ceske Budejovice.
Malinovsky's troops occupied Gem

Ferdinand Schoerner's middle army

threw powerful armored and storm
forces.
The corridor through which thou

withdraw toward the American lines
was narrowed by Gen. Andrei 1
Yeremenko's 4th Ukrainian Army
His troops closed the corridor to 81
miles with the capture of Kolin

Dispatches from Berlin reported
that Red Army authorities, saddled
with the problem of saving the Ger

problem of flooded subways in which
lay hundreds of bodies, and waves
of fires started by the Werewolves

Civil Liberties Union
Asks Byrnes 10 Hear
Latin American Aliens

The American Civil Liberties
Union last night appealed to Sec
retary Of State Byrnes to grant
hearings to some of 1890 enemy
aliens brought to the United States
from Latin-American countries dur
ing the war before deporting them
to Germany or Japan. They were
said to be imprisoned at Fort Lin
coin, N. Oak. and to include 1000
German and 1900 japanese nation
ais.
The appeal was addressed to Mr..
Byrnes by DR.. John Haynes Holmes,
chairman: Arthur Garfield Hays,
general counsel, and Roger Baldwin,
director, of the Union.
I'VE understand" their letter said,
that the tState) Department is
considering deporting to Germany
and Japan all but comparative few
of these persons who may be per-
mitted TO return to Latin American
countries. - We understand the
State Department has declined to
recognize the right of the South
American countries, who sent the
internees here, to get them back
-
"We urge that in reviewing policy
you will conclude Cd to accord hear
ings upon request, similar to those
given resident enemy aliens to all
those from Latin American coun-
tries here interned; and (2) to rec
ognize the right of American
governments to take back their own
residents, and therefore to honor
any such request made
The ACLU officials said that the
$500 enemy aliens remaining were
the residue of 1000 brought here
from Latin-America during the war,
but that the rest already have been
repatriated.

- Two District Questions. =
"The implication that disfran.

payment to the District" Contend.
ing that a larger Federal payment
than the present $4,000, 900 is justi.
fed, Mr.. Hodgkins concluded: The
Capper amendment would not alter
that obligation in the slightest de-
gree"
Senator McCarran said he could
not go into an extended discussion
of what constitutes statehood, in his
letter, but added: mo range of gov
ernmental authority is reserved te
the States under the Constitution
The reservation in the Tenth
Amendment is to the respective
States or to the people Statehood
is marked by two major attributes
Control over territory within the
boundaries of the State, subject to
the provisions of applicable Federal
law; and representation in the Con-
gress equal in the Senate and pro-
portioned in the House,"
On the Federal payment ques-
ton, Senataor McCarran wrote:
Il have long been on record as
favoring not merely the continu-
ance, but the substantial increasing
of this contribution. Others than
myself have stated, not, I think,
as matter of principle, but rather
as matter of practically, that if
the District took on the attributes
of statehood with regard to ma
tional representation, it would be
deemed expedient to end the Fed
eral contribution. Some of those
who have made this statement are
in an excellent position to enforce
their views,
