Foreign Minister Put
.0n LIST Of Missinq
East Reich Officials
By the Associoted Press

BERLIN, Feb. 1.-Georg Dert-
niger, the East German foreign
minister who tried hard to please
the Russians, was on the missing
list tonight.
The bespectacled 48-year-o old
Christian Democrat was reported
either under house arrest by Com
munist police or recuperating in
mysterious seclusion from a heart
attack.
Gerhard Eisler press chief of
the East German Communist re-
public. insisted: "Dertinger falls
into the same category as Grote-
wohl's suicide Both are alive
and happy as long as they don t
have to read Die Welt" He re-
fused to say more.
Die Welt Made Report.
Die Welt is the British-con-
trolled newspaper that reported
Dertinger's house arrest.
Grotewohl is the East German
Prime Minister who has been on
mysterious sick leave for a
month. The West Berlin press at
one time reported he was suicide.
The gloom ridden Foreign Min
istry was taken over temporarily
by Dertinger's deputy, Communist
Anton Ackermann,
Three none Communist members
of Dertinger's official staff, includ-
ing a blond secretary, his per-
sonal assistant and his chief of
protocol, also we're reported by Die
Welt to be under arrest on charges
of being agents for American and
British intelligence.
The ministry files were reported
being ransacked for evidence OF
espionage.
Dertinger's last known official
mission was to call on Gen. Vas
silly Chuikov, Soviet chief of East
Germany. and Russian Ambas-
sador Vladimir Semionov at
Soviet headquarters last Monday.
Talk Leaks Blamed.
Political sources speculated he
was upbraided for leaks on secret
talks he had recently with Soviet
Foreign Minister Andrei Vishin-
sky.
He was absent when the Eastern
Zone Parliament met Wednesday
and Thursday. Officials explain
ed at the time that he had had
a heart attack.
Some sources in his party re-
fused to put credence in the story
of his arrest. They insisted he
had had physical breakdown
from purging the Christian Demo-
cratic Union of 1000 officials
recently.

Czech Reds Sentence
; 10 Die, 70 Others
Get Prison Terms
nv the Assoeiofed Press

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, Feb.
11.-A Moravian State court at
Jihlava today sentenced three
men to death on charges of plot
ting to assassinate prominent
leaders and overthrow the Gov
ernment.
Two other defendants were
sentenced to life terms and Is
were sentenced to 4 to Is years.
Only one had pleaded guilty.
Who the % planned to assassin
ate was not disclosed. Their
humble standing, however, scarce
ly marked them as serious threats
to Czechoslovakia's Communist
led regime. Nearly all were
workers.
The controlled radio said to-
night the men had been in con-
slant touch with a foreign agent"
But it was reported elsewhere
that the most substantial evidence
against them only concerned the
dynamiting of an electric gener-
ator and other industrial objects.
Biggest of Series.
The trial was the biggest of a
series running almost continuously
In the past several months.
About 25 more of the same
group are to go on trial in the
same court Tuesday.
The defendants sentenced to-
day were accused of being mem
bers of an underground band of
terroriStS and murderers'' who
helped Czechs escape the country
and collected military, political
and economic information.
Those sentenced to death were
Karel esely, 33-year-old leather
worker, Jan Tucek. "a. a textile
business man. and Frantisek Rod,
48, a tool machine operator.
The two sentenced to life i'm
prlsonment were Vavrinec
Schwarz, 43, worker, and Stan
islav Barta, 40, tool machine
operator.
Those sentenced to shorter
prison terms included a sculptur
and two members of district ma
tional committee at Jihlava.
These committees are Communist
dominated local government
bodies.
Press Attacks u. s.
The controlled press today took
a new anti-American line by Civ
Ing publicity to the fifth anniver-
sary of the bombing of this city
February IA, 1945. when it was
occupied by the Nazis.
The date of the bombing had
been ignored in previous years.
But today Vaclav Vacek, Com
munist Lord Mayor of Prague,
told the official news agency that
$500 persons were killed or SER
1ously injured by the bombing,
which brought harm to the Czech
population but not to the Nazis." :"
He said American authorities
explained that the bombing was
accidental.

China Reds Accused
OF Aiding Anti-French
In Indo-China Fiqht
sy the Associated Press

TAIPEI, Formosa, Feb. IL
The Chinese Nationalists officially
charged today that the Chinese
Reds had decided to give full but
secret troop support to Ho Chi
Minis anti-French forces in Indo-
China.
The Defense Ministry said num-
bers of Chinese Communist troops
already had switched Uniforms
and joined Hos army.
These Chinese, it said, were
helping troops of Hos so-called
Republic of Wet Nam" in an at
tack on the northern Indo-China
town of Langsen.
Liu Made Decision.
The ministry asserted it's in
formation came from intelligence
sources in which it placed abso-
lutte trust. 1t said the Red de-
cision was taken at a secret con-
ference in Canton at which Liu
Shao-chi presided. Liu is the pro-
Soviet No. 2 political figure in Red
China and is top man during Mao
Tze-tung's current visit to Mos
COW. -
cThe Chinese Red radio gave
color to the Nationalist allega-
tions with new propaganda
blasts against the French in
Indo-Chlna.
Zone broadcast heard in San
Francisco by the Associated
Press said a party of Chinese
residents of Indo- China had
met the Communist Army at
the border and described the
terrible conditions under which
Chinese are living in French
occupied Wet Nam"
Another charged that, with
the connivance of French au-
thorities," 5000 Chinese Ma
tionalist troops who had fed
into Indo-China returned to
China and fought a two-day
battle before they were cap
tured.)
Shanghai Bombing Expected.
There were signs that the Ma
tionalists intended to continue
their bombing of Shanghai despite
enraged howls of the Communists
and protests from foreigners liv-
ing there.
The American Governments de-
mand for. cessation of attacks on
American property, such as the
American-own power plant,
may be another matter. On that
point, top Nationalist officials re-
fused comment.
The power plant, damaged this
week, is a major nerve center of
Shanghai.

For Permanent Home
BY the Associated Press

HONOLULU. Jan. 6.-Nicolai
Drujinenko, 10, is a lad without a
country.
He has been shutting back and
forth across the Pacific since Sep
tember. unable to land anywhere.
Nicolai slowed away aboard the
American President Lines Gen.
Gordon four months ago in Com
munist Shanghai. He is aboard
the Gordon again, bound for San
Francisco.
This Is the third time he has
crossed the Pacific. AS soon as
he reaches the Pacific coast, he
will be put aboard another APL
ship headed back for the Orient.
immigration officials here de-
tanned Nicolai in September when
he first arrived on the Gordon.
Baff1ed because no country-in-
cluding the United States-would
have him, they put him on board
a ship bound for San Francisco.
immigration authorities there
put bim aboard the APL freighter
Dartmouth Victory bound for
Taku Bar. off Tientsin, China.
Nicolai jumped ship in Yoko-
hama. United States Army off,
cials put him aboard the next
APL vessel. It happened to be the
Gen. Gordon again. This time it
was bound for San Francisco.
If the Chinese Communists re-
, fuse to accept him when, and If,
he finally does reach Taku Bar,
this sort of thing could go on
Indefinitely.
Nicolai's transportation, under
immigration laws, must be paid
by the steamship line that brought
him into the United States.
He says he was born in Shang-
hal of British and Polish parents.
but he has no passport or identi-
f1cation papers of any kind. He
says he does not care where he
goes or what happens to him as
long as he can stay out of China.
