to cooperate In the European Re-
covery Program which was just then
coming into being.
The Czech cabinet, including the
Communist ministers, had voted un-
animously to participate. Two fac
tors Influenced their decision, &C
cording to this account.
Poles Offered encouragement.
One was private statement by
Polish Premier Jozef Cyrankiewicz
that Poland also was prepared to
join the aid plan whether it suited
Moscow or not" The second was the
assurance, given to Mr.. Masaryk
three times by the Soviet counselor
in Prague, that the Soviet Union
had no objections
Shortly after this decision by the
Czech cabinet came an urgent call
to the Kremlin. President Benes'
successor, Klement Gottwald, and
Mr.. Masaryk left Immediately. Mr..
Gottwald, these accounts say, UNDER
cut Mr.. Masaryk completely in the
course of a long private talk with
Prime Minister Stain.
When Mr.. Masaryk finally was
called into the meeting later that
night he was told bluntly that
Czechoslovakia must either be "for
or against" the Soviet Union.
Threatened to End Alliance.
If Mr.. Masaryk insisted on CO.
operating with the Marshall Plan,
Mr.. Stain Is reported as saying,
then the alliance with the Soviet
Union would be considered at an
end.
The odds were too great. A tele-
gram was sent to Pague instructing
the cabinet that unanimous vote
must be cast against accepting
assistance.
A blanched and heavy-hearted
Masaryk flew back to Czechoslovakia
where he told friends:
This is new Munich. left for
Moscow as the minister of sover-
eign state. I have returned as the
butler of Stalin."
