|Czechs Demand Recall
OF Israe|'s Minister d
After SIansky Trial
By Inc Assoeioisd Press

VIENNA, Dec. g. Czechoslo-
vakia has demanded the recall Of
the Israeli minister to Prague, A.
Leon Kubovy, as persona nom
grata, Radio Prague announced
tonight. SS
DR.. Kubovy was mentioned In
the trial of former Communist
boss Rudolph Slansky and 13 other
top Communists who were hanged
|or jailed for life last week.
Parallels Kennan Case.
DR.. Kubovy is at present in Tel
Aviv, where he was called by the
Israeli government to give re-
port on Czechoslovakia's recent
bitter attacks on the Israel gov
|ernment and on zionisn.
In normal diplomatic practice,
the designation of DR.. Kubovy as
persona non grata means Israel
will be unable to send him back to
Prague. On October 3. the Soviet
Union called United States Am
bassador George F.. Kennan per-
soma non grata on grounds that
he slandered Russia by comparing
life in Moscow to that in a Nazi
internment camp. Mr.. Kennan
was outside Russia at the time
and never went back.
Radio Prague said a note re-
questing DR.. Kubovy's recall had
been handed to the Israeli lega-
ton in Prague today.
Trial confession" Cited.
The note cited the confession
of Mordechai Oren, kidnapped
head of the Israeli Mapam Party,
who testified in the trial against
Slansky and other alleged "Zion-
ist" anti-Moscow conspirators.
I'm the recent trial." the note
was quoted. "Mordechai Oren said
that Kubovy ordered him in De-
cember, 1851. to obtain espionage
information on the proceedings
against Slansky and his group"
Eight of the II former Com
munist officials hanged in Prague
were Jews. Three others who
were sentenced to life imprison-
ment were also Jews.

presidential elections. Some Of
them have received Cabinet posts
and continued as chairman. Will
Hays. a Republican. and James A.
Farley, a Democrat. were notable
examples. Mr.. Summerfeld, how
ever, considers it a bad practice
He believe that the administra-
ton of a government department
should be divorced as far as pos
sible from politics. In consequence
the National Committee faces a
shakeup at the top level despite
the recent overwhelming Repub-
lican victory, :.
Mrs. Priest Also to Quit.
Not only is Mr.. Summerfield
stepping out, but the assistant
chairman, Mrs. Roy F. Prieft Of
Utah, also is expected to resign.
She has been selected for the Of
flee of Treasurer of the United
States. The new chairman, who
ever he may be. probably will have
a good deal to say about the ap-
pointment of his assistant.
A number of other Republicans
prominent in the recent national
campaign have been mentioned
as potential national chairmen
Among them are former Senator
Harry Darby of Kansas, a mem
ber Of the National Committee
and Ralph Cake Of Oregon. q
former member. Mr.. Darby in the
past has declined to be a candi-
date for the Craftsmanship when
he was a popular choice for the
job. 1t is believed he would take
a similar stand if his name were
again proposed. Mr.. Cake last
summer declined to be a candidate
for reelection as Oregon's mem
ber Of the National Committee.
Mr.. Roberts has been a news
paper editor and publisher. The
Oskaloosa Independent, first pub
lished in 1860 by his grandfather
is a family enterprise of which Mr.
Roberts has been co-editor and
co-publisher.
Importance Increasing.
Mr.. Summerf1eld will continue
as national chairman until after
his appointment as Postmaster
General in order to wind up i'm
portant business of the organiza-
tion and to do his part in the ar
rangement for the Inauguration.
The Craftsmanship of the Re-
publican National Committee,
with an incumbent Republican
President. increases in Importance,
Patronage, appointment to Fed
eral office, usually is cleared
through the National Committee
A new chairman will be faced,
too, with the need to maintain a
strong party organization in
preparation for the congressional
campaign two years hence. The
research department of the COM
nittee will be called upon to
supply information and data to
Republicans in Congress as well
as those in the Executive branch
of the Government. t.-.
Under a new rule adopted by
the Republicans last summer,
State chairmen in States where
the party has been successful at
the polls have been added to the
membership of the National Com
mittee. This increases the men,
bership by between IS and 40.
Each of the 48 States and the ter
ritories and the District of Colum-
bia have two members on the
committee. With the additional
members, the committee will num-
ber between 140 and $50.

Truman's foreign policy has all

1948 to work as assistant in the
committees publicity division and
later as special assistant to Mrs.
Edwards. She will hold these
titles again this year. as well as
working as a courier. She and her
husband live in the District.
Desks Piled High
Only Mrs. Spraggs is not yet on
the job. The other three women
have been in Washington almost
a month, going through an in
tensive indoctrination course
Much Of this has consisted of
visiting various Government agen-
cies, in order, according to Mrs.
Jensen "that we will understand
what goes on here so we can
explain 1t to others"
Their desks at committee head
quarters are piled high with;
literature collected from various
agencies-the contents Of which
they hope to carry ''in our heads,
instead of in Suitcases." says Mrs.
Schmidt.
Mrs. Edwards hopes to have all
four women on the road within
the next few weeks. Tentative
plans call for a courier to spend
about two weeks in each State.
with at least one meeting in each
congressional district in the State.
They will work mainly with
women but "the men are welcome
to come" they all say. They will
come back to Washington about
every six weeks, says Mrs. Ed
wards, ito let me know what is
going on out there"
All meetings are being arranged
through the Democratic National
Committeeman and woman in
each State. 1--WE won't go into any
State where we are not invited by
the Democratic organization"
Mrs. Edwards declares. For the
present, that appears to exclude
almost all the Southern states
from their itinerary although the
committee expects this to change
after the convention.
Before the Democratic conven-I
ton this July the couriers will
concentrate mainly on urging
organization and registration.
After the convention they will dis
cuss candidates. Both times. Of
course, they will stress issues.
Prosperity and Peoce
The main issue, so far as Mrs.
Edwards is concerned, is 1.-The
record Of the Democratic Party
in the last 20 years-not just the
prosperity of the American nation
but the fact that so many more
individual people are prosperous
than ever were before-the distri-
button of income that has taken
place-the fact that there are
more people in the United States
today who are enjoying comfort
able living than ever before.
''I think this is directly attrib-
utable to the Roosevelt Truman
program of the last 20 years"
Mrs. Edwards declares. II think
the whole feeling and spirit of
the Democratic Party is so diff
ferent from that of the opposition.
And think the American people
know that. and will vote to con-
tinue the good times they have
been having"
