'Czechs Link SIansky
To Same Traitor Acts
That Jailed Clements
BY the Assoeioted Press

BERLIN, Nov. 29.-Communist
press dispatches from Prague to-
day linked directly the names of
ICzechoslovakia's former vice pre-
Imier Rudolf Slansky and former
foreign minister Vlado Clements,
both of whom are in prison on
charges of anti-state activities.
The Russian-controlled East
Germany news agency Adm quoted
Czech Minister of State Security
Ladislav Kopriva as telling
Prague culture" meeting yester-
day that Slansky and Clements
had engaged in ''conspirat torial ac-
tivity"
The arrest of Slansky, a tough,
Moscow-trained Communist for 80
years, was announced Tuesday.
Prague radio said he was removed
from his job as vice-premier and
from his seat in Parliament.
Clements Still in Jail.
Clements. also an old-time
Communist, has been in Jail for
almost a year on charges of mas
terminding a five-year "Titoist"
plot to overthrow Czechoslovakia's
Red government and turn the
country over to western imperial
ists.'
Today's dispatch did not call
Slansky a Titoist, but called him
the same names the Kremlin- led
Cominform applied to Yugoslavia' S
Premier Marshal Tito when it
ousted him in 1948.
Kopriva was quoted as saying
Slansky was arrested because he
had become a "TrotZky' and a
traitor to Moscow.
Specific charges against SLAM
sky. who until his arrest had held
a vital job as co-ordinator of
national economic planning, have
mot yet been made public. But
kopriva said his country's gov
Iernment had been threatened by
the activities of American i'm
iperialist agents"
ReactiOnary Plot Cited.
"Since 1945." said Kopriva. "the
reactionary powers have been in
touch with foreign imperialists to
block the development of the peo-
| pies democratic states"
| President Clement Gottwald
who engineered the purge of both
Clements and Slansky, said last
February that Clements was the
leader OF an anti-Moscow plot.
! He said there was a 'large-scale
conspiracy inside the (Commu-
nisD Party with the object of
ruling the party, changing it's poll
cy and taking the road back
toward capitalism and co-opera-
tion with the camp of imperial
ism"
With the arrest of Clements
the Czechoslovak government
started vast purge of its ruling
party ranks. Although Clements
has not yet been brought to trial
nearly every other "anti-state'
and espionage" trial since then
has apparently been a massive
buildup for his case.

Curb on Non-EssentioI Spending

Chairman Cannon of the House Appropria-
tions Committee has made good defense of the
single package appropriation bill in an article
for "Tax Review" published by the Tax Foun-
dation of New York No defense of the plan
should be necessary, of course, for any appro-
priating system that lops So billion off the Fed
eral budget without damaging national security
and that effects further reductions by nom
defense agencies in times like these ought to
receive unanimous acclaim. Yet there has been
occasional sniping at the omnibus plan, despite
its manifest accomplishments.
Mr. Cannon is right in his belief that much
of the opposition arises because of the demon
strated success of one-shot appropriations. BY
Jumping eleven major departmental appropria-
ton bills into one measure, the chances for
behind e-scenes log-rolling by pressure groups
in or outside the Government are reduced. These
groups generally met defeat when they tried
to prevent certain budget cuts from becoming
law. The money was saved and the country is
the better off adninistratiyely and economically
by reason of the savings.
The need for a roadblock on non-essential
spending is more acute today than it was when
Congress last year began consideration of the
budget requests. No method or device for holding
non- defense appropriations to a minimum should
be overlooked by the new Congress. Certainly
the omnibus appropriation bill is a device that
has proved itself under test and that has earned
the right to show what it can do in time of
national emergency.

Some Words for the Foint-Heorted

The turn of events in Korea has spread
lot of depression and even defeatism among
many people in the free world. But in Yugo-
slavia, which used to be behind the Iron Curtain
and which has been feeling the pressures of
an implacable and ever-increasing threat from
the Kremlin- directed Comnforn, the reverses
suffered by our American and allied United
Nations forces have been taken pretty much in
stride. At any rate far from weakening in their
defiance of Moscow, Marshal Tito and some of
the chief spokesmen of his government have
been speaking out more strongly than ever
against the Korean aggression and implicitly
against the Soviet Union.
Thus, as reported by the New York Times
the latest example of this Yugoslav attitude has
been expressed in a speech at Zagreb by Colonel
General Ivan Goshnjak, Deputy Defense Min
lister. Brushing aside Chinese Communist gains
in Korea as cheap victories that would be OF
no decisive Importance in the event of world
war, he has plainly indicated that the Tito
government does not share the feelings of West
ern peSsimiSts that it has confidence in the
ability of Anglo American military power to win

Union. and, that Titos armed forces (so9e 80

Wire-T op Bill

If this lame-duck Congress has done
nothing else during its recent term, by
its unanimous passage of bill to give
"the FBI the authority to make arrests
without warrants in cases of felonies, es-
pecially those involving espionage, sabo-
tage and the national defense" it has
earned its salary and the everlasting
praise of loyal Americans everywhere.
Now, if the coming new Congress will
match this in January by passing the
Heating bill, or some similar bill. to allow
the FBI to use wire-tapping for certain
purposes and under proper authority. it
will provide one of the most vital defense
measures that America has ever had
No loyal law abiding American citizen
need fear that the FBI will ever destroy
his priceless rights or liberties. On the
contrary, these rights and liberties are
made all the more secure because OF the
FBI, as the record will prove.
We cannot expect FBI Director j. Ed
