In Prague Denounces
Red Tinge Of Group
By tho Asseciaied Press

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakla, Aug. 20.
A minority group of IL Americans
attending the World Festival Of
Democratic Youth issued a state
ment yesterday reporting that an
American girl was detained for two
hours by an officer in a Czechoslovak
uniform and a Communist member
of the festival committee.
In another statement, the group
criticized as unrepresentative what
it called the leftist makeup of most
of the American delegation. The
statements were issued through the
United States Embassy, but not by
the embassy.
The statement on the detention Of
the American girl, Eleanor Roberts,
said the Communist member and an
officer in the uniform of lieutenant
in the Czechoslovak army (Czecho-
slovak security police wear the same
uniform as the army interfered
with preparations of a letter which
the group planned to circulate to
festival participants and newsmen.
Miss Roberts was member OF the
group preparing the letter.
Copies Refused.
Upon entering the room where
the letter was being translated, the
statement continued, the Com
munist committee member and the
lieutenant said they had learned
that Communist propaganda
was being prepared there. They de-
manded copies and the original, and
when this was refused kept Miss
Roberts and six Czechoslovak girl
translators in room under guard,
the statement said.
The Czechoslovak girls were asked
to tell their political affiliations, the
statement said, adding that Miss
Roberts was told if she failed to give
up the letter the lieutenant woulc
bring the entire political police o1
Czechoslovakia into action" She
and the translators finally were re-
leased, however, without action.
The other statement said in part
"Appreciating the potentialities OF
the festival, we regret that the
American delegation here does not
truly represent American youth
The organizations that are here rep
resented and the sentiments that
have been expressed are, on the
whole, farther to the left than those
of the great majority OF American
youth.
State Department Criticized.
1--WE do not criticize our fellow
delegates for effectively and sincere
ly upholding their opinions. but
level our criticism at the United
States State Department and the
major United States youth organi-
cations. The major United States
youth organizations were not alert
to the opportunities presented by
the festival and the United States
State Department discouraged par
ticipation by withdrawing shipping
facilities and failing to aid IN our
cultural contributions.
1--WE believe this shortsightedness
has lost for the United States the
opportunity to present America
properly to 10000 youth participants
and to the free people of Czecho-
slovakia who have impressed us
with their interest and courtesy"
The American youth delegation
exhibit showed a figure representing
a lynched Negro. The statement
said the exhibit gave an 'incomplete
impression of American life"
