Regret to CzechosIovukiu

The United States has ordered
immediate return to the Czecho-
slovak government of German
documents an American military
detachment dug out of a hillside
cache near Prague and removed
from the country without per-
mission, the State Department
announced late yesterday.

had protested.
Took Papers February IL.
The State Department said a de-
tachment of American soldiers from
the United States occupation zone
in Germany entered Czechoslovakia
February II and took the docu-
ments.
"The detachment sought these
documents, the department ex-
planned, because they were in
formed that the documents would
throw light upon the prewar plans
OF Hitler and give information as
to the conduct of the war by the
Nazi government"
Although the American soldiers
entered Czechoslovakia with passes
issued by a Czechoslovak liaison Of
flcer, the department added, the ex-
pedition had not been approved by
the Czechoslovak government.
Protest by Jan Masaryk.
The Associated Press reported
from Prague earlier yesterday that
Jan Masaryk, Czechoslovak foreign
minister, in protesting the action,
said some folks don't seem to know
that we are an Allied country and
that the war is over"
The State Department had no
information on news agency reports
that three members of the Ameri-
can detachment had been arrested
and did not make public any de-
tails about contents of the docu-
ments u how they were found.
Prague dispatches said 80 to 40
boxes of documents were found in
a cavern sealed by wall which re-
qu1red two days to smash.

selves with the clamor of the press
and students against Russian occu-
patton of Manchuria and the Amer

Soviet troops into the vast region.
Accord Based on Yalta Pact.
The officials coupled their protest
with a request that the Foreign
Office announce that an interna-
tional decision affecting China and
made without China's approval
would not be considered binding.
The Chinese-Russian treaty of
August IA, which granted Russia
special rights in Manchuria, was
based on the Big Three agreement
at Yalta, to which China was not a
signatory.
