Staying Of Clements,
Arrest Of GoftwaId
zapotocky Reported
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 6.-Uncon-
firmed underground reports re-
ceived here last night from Czecho-
slovakia said former Foreign Min
lister Vlado Clements had been
slain trying to flee his Communist
captorS and that President Klem-
ent Gottwald and Premier Anto-
min Zapotocky were under house
arrest.
The Special Committee of Free
Czechoslovakia-a group Of politi-
cal exiles from the Red-ruled
country-made the reports public.
They said Gottwald and Ia
potocky had opposed Russian de-
mands that some of CZechoslo-
vakia's heavy industry be dis
mantled and shipped to Poland
and the Soviet Union. The two
top officials were also said to have
refused demands to send skilled
Czech workers to factories in the
Soviet Union.
The report said that Foreign
Trade Minister Antonin Gregpr
had been removed from Office and
arrested in the same nationwide
purge of ''Titoist plotters" charged
with putting national interests
above those Of the Soviet bloc.
Recent direct official announce
ments in Prague have said that
more than 200 persons, including
top Communist officials, have been
arrested in the current purge. The
government said Clements was
taken in custody for plotting to
bring Czechoslovakia into the
Western camp.
There have been recurring ru-
mors that Gottwald, too. was in
Communist disfavor. AS recently
as IL days ago, however. he ap-
peared before the Communist
Central Committee in Prague and
attacked Clements as a tool of
Western powers and the leader
of an anti-state plot.
The refugee committee said
here that its reports were of the
situation as of five days ago. 1t
said it had not been able to
substantiate the report of Clemen-
tis' death, but said the report was
highly probable"
Gottwald was said to be under
house arrest in Kolodeje Castle
near Prague and Zapotocky was
reported confined to his apart
ment.
Others Listed as Plotters.
The committee said the follow
ing high officials were reported
under arrest as plotters with
Clements:
Jindreich Wesley, chief of the
political police; Bedrich Bokorny,
chief of the secret police; sBavel
Broz, chief Of the passport depart
ment in the Interior Ministry, and
Gen. Josef Pavel, commander in
chief of the uniformed police.
The special committee is led by
Hubert Ripka, former minister of
foreign trade, and DR.. Jan Papa
mex, former U. N. delegate who
broke with the Communist gov
ernment which seized power in

ICC Rules Out
Discrimination

WASHINGTON-tP,-The In
terstate Commerce Commission
has ruled ont racial discrin1ina-
ton in sales of tickets for ex-
cursion boat trips on the Potomac
River.
1t refused, however, to award
damages to four negroes who said
they were refused passage on a
steamboat trip between Washing
ton and Mt. Vernon. Va. on Sept.
Is, 1850.
The four. Helena Haley and
Charles Haley Of Cleveland. O.,
and Loncic Malloy and Prunella
Norwood of Washington had
asked for $4,000 each because of
alleged public humiliation.
The ICC said damage award
requires a showing of some spe-
cific pecuniary injury not in
volved in this case and asserted
there was no evidence that any
one other than the four knew
that they were being turned
away from the ticket window.
On the other hand, the commits
sion said refusal of Wilson Line
Operating Co. to sell them tickets
involved unreasonable prejudice
and disadvantage. The company
was directed TO cease and de-
sist" from refusing ticket sales to
negroes in the future.
The company said at hearing
ON the complaint it is no longer
engaging in such refusal.

Civilian Employment
Last Month Reported

BY the Assoeiaied Press

The Census Bureau reported
yesterday 5S,905, 900 civilians hele
jobs in February, much the high
est" employment total ever fol
that month. A like record for the
month had been set in January
Actually, there was a decline ir
the number of workers from jan
uary-17. 900 fewer on the farms
88, 900 fewer elsewhere-but it was
much smaller than the usual sea-
sonal drop, which was why the
February total set record fol
that month.
Secretary of Commerce Sawyer
commented on the significance o1
the bureau data gathered in q
sample survey in the week OF
February 4-10.
Despite predictions Of serious
unemployment resulting from the
conversion of plants to defense
work, these figures make it clear
that, as of February 10 at least
the effect of the defense program
has been exactly the opposite" he
said.
Although here may still be
temporary. cutbacks in unemploy-
ment in some areas, due to lags
in conversion, developments to
date would indicate that wide

Mr.. Mollet was assigned by So

other major parties of the last

He told Parliament France

Vatican Sco,rnfuI
|0f Reds on Peace
BY the As.oeiaied Press

VATICAN CITY, Mar. Ca
Communist attempt to hitch the
current Iron Curtain peace offen-
sive to the Roman Catholic church
received a cold water dousing from
the Vatican yesterday.
The Communist inspired World
Peace Council" had asked Pope
Plus XII, to support "disarma-
ment." The reply was scornful.
A recent exchange of letters was
made public yesterday by the Vat
lean newspaper. L'Osservatore Ro-
mano:
Frederic Joliot-C -Curie, fired from
the French Atomic Energy Com
mission for his Communist views
and now president of the world
Peace Council" which recently met
in Berlin, asked the Vatican to
support disarmament, described as
the final objective of the parti-
sans of peace"
Msgr. Giovanni Battista Mon
TIM Of the Vatican secretariat of
state, to whom Joliot-Curie ad-
dressed the request, made the re-
ply. Dated February 16, it said it
was a pleasure to see recognized
"the fact that the sovereign pom
tiff has always pronounced him
self in favor of peace-of true
and just peace" But the reply
added:
"The words and acts of the holy
father on this point have been
travestied, so that powerful or
ganizations that pretend to work
for peace have gone so far as to
try to make the masses believe the
absurd calumny that the Pope de-
sires and favors war"
