as more moderate than some of
the Red hierarchy, Zapotocky
was sworn in Immediately after
winning a unanimous vote from
the 271 legislators.
While Soviet Russia's ambas-
sador, Alexander j. Bogmolov,
looked on, Zapotocky was
sworn in.
SirOky Named Premier.
Zapotocky was chosen for the
job by the Czechoslovak Com
munist Party's central commit
tee. which has had plenty OF
chances to learn the Kremlin's
views.
Acting on the committee's
recommendation, Zapotocky
named as premier Vilem Siroky,
so, a beetle-browed vice premier
and former foreign minister, of
Slovak birth.
The appointment Of Siroky
was regarded here as an effort
to bury differences between the
Czechs and Slovaks. Siroky heads
the Communist Party in Slo-
vakia.
Party Chalrmanship Open.
The central committee as
signed Vice Premier Antonin
Novotny, 48, a sharp-jawed
favorite of Gottwald, to the
relatively minor job of running
the committees secretariat. He
retains his vice premiership.
It was not announced who

Big Senate Vote for BohIen
Forecast, But Opponents Plan
To Stage Last-Ditch Fiqht
Mccarthy Hits Dulles
As Mcleod FuiIs to
Appear for Quiz
By ]. A. O'Ienrx

An overwhelming Senate vote
In favor of Charles E (Chip)
Bohlen as Ambassador to Russia
was forecast last night, as a
small group of critics prepared
to stage a last-ditch floor fight
tomorrow.
The debate may prevent a vote
before Wednesday, but even Sen
ator Mccarthy, Republican, of
Wisconsin. a leading oponent,
joined in the opinion of Senate
leaders that Mr.. Bohlen will be
confirmed by a substantial ma
jority.
In fact, the Bohlen nomination
itself was overshadowed again
yesterday by verbal fire being di-
rected at Secretary of State
Dulles by Senators Mccarthy
and McCarran, Democrat, of
Nevada, over whether the State
Departments new security Off
Ger, r. w. Scott Mcleod, is in
agreement with Mr.. Dulles on
the Bohlen appointment.
Mcleod Fails to Appear.
Developments yesterday in
cluded:
/. Mr.. Mcleod failed to appear
at a closed meeting Of Senator
McCarthy's Senate investigating
subcommittee, and the Senator
charged the security officer had
been ordered not to attend until
the Bohlen nomination has been
disposed of.
2. Senate Majority Leader
Taft rejected a Mccarthy sug-
gestion that Mr.. Dulles be re-
called for further questioning
by the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, which approved the Boh-
len appointment Is to 0.
3. Senator Mccarthy charged
that some aspects of the Bohlen
case were not brought to PreSi-
dent Eisenhower attention until
after the White House press
conference Thursday at which
the President reaffirmed his sup
port of Mr.. Bohlen.
AssaiIs Dulles Stand.
The Wisconsin Senator con-
tended yesterday that Mr.. Nc
Leod had refused to clear the
Bohlen appointment.
$50, what Mr.. Dulles said Fri
day was untrue" Senator Nc
Carthy added, referring to the
Secretary of States denial that
there was any difference between
him and his security officer over
the appointment.
"Mr. Dulles has the right, of
course, to overrule Mcleod, but
he doesn't have the right to mis-
lead the Senate about it," Sem
ator Mccarthy continued. IF
he overrules Mcleod he should
tell the Senate he did, and why"
Taft Clarifies Situation.
Senator Taft, a member of
the Foreign Relations Commit
tee, helped clear up the situation
when he told reporters that Mr..
Dulles never had testified in
that committee that Mr.. Nc
Leod cleared Mr.. Bohlen.
The Ohioan said the substance
of the Dulles testimony in closed
session was that Mr.. Mcleod had
called Mr.. Dulles attention to
some derogatory information in
the Bohlen file, and had checked
the responsibility on to Mr..
Dulles for passing on clearance.
Il got the impression" said
Senator Taft, that Mcleod
thought there was sufficient
doubt about the information to
require some additional investi-
cation, but that Mcleod, so to
speak, washed his hands of it
and passed the responsibility on
to Dulles"
Secretary Dulles told his Fri
day press conference the FBI

In Sailing Boat
Seized by Reds
Ship Coptoin Also
In Craft Captured
Near Hong Kong
By the Associated Pres.

HONG KONG, Sunday, Mar.
22.-Two United States news and
radio correspondents and an
American ship captain were
feared captured by the Chinese
Communist late yesterday near
Hong Kong when an armed Red
junk ran down and seized small
sailing boat, flying the American
flag.
The Royal Navy Observatory
at Lantoa Island, six miles west
Of Hong Kong, reported it saw
the craft intercepted and towed
toward Communicated Lap
samai Island, 10 miles farther
west of this British crown colony.
The boat was believed the AZ
foot yawl Kert, owned by Rich
ard Applegate of Medford, Ore,
former United Press war CORE
spondent and currently National
Broadcasting Co. representative
in Hong Kong.
The State Department ordered
Consul General Julian F.. Har-
rington at Hong Kong to take
all possible steps to obtain the
release of the Americans. NBC
also made representations in
London and Tokyo.
Going to Portuguese Colony.
Mr.. Applegate. 81, a lifelong
boating enthusiast, left here at
II am. with Don. Dixon, Is, of
New York City. a Far Eastern
correspondent of the Interna-
tional News Service and two
Chinese "boat-boys" for a 40
mile sail to Macau. Portuguese
colony on the Chinese mainland.
While only four persons left
the Slipway where the Kert was
moored, it appeared Mr.. Apple
gate had later picked up Ben
jamin Krasner, an American sea
captain from Brooklyn, and pos
sibly two others. Friends said it
was not known for sure how
many were actually aboard.
Mr.. Applegate and Mr.. Dixon
had planned to sail to Macau to
meet David Cicero, International
News Photo Service photogra-
pher and bring him back with
them.
1t was not Immediately known
whether the Kert had reached
Macau and was intercepted on
the return voyage. If it had, Mr..
Cicero also might likely be
among those held.
Could See Interception.
The Royal Navy said it's Lam
tao Island Observatory could see
a Communist armed boat inter-
cept the sailing boat at 5:35 pm.
about five miles from that island.
The observatory lost sight Of
the two craft as they neared

Mr.. Applegate was a World
War II Navy veteran. He had
worked for the United Press II
years until his resignation last
fall. Formerly he was U. P.'s
manager for Southeast Asia with
headquarters at Singapore. Later
he covered the Korean war. In
Hong Kong he served temporarily
with Reuters news agency in ad-
dltion to broadcasting for NBC.
Mr.. Dixon. a graduate of Syra-
cuse University. Joined the New
York bureau of ms in 1851 and
shortly after was sent to Korea

The broadcast, by Boris Leon

interest of Western diplomats in
view of statements made by So
Wet leaders since the death of
Stain and the coming to power
Of Georgi Malenkov as prime
minister. ~
Diplomats Are Wary.
Was it. they asked, part of a
pattern which could be taken to
mean the new Russian rulers are
ready to ease up on the cold war
with the West and come to some
sort of terms? Or is it just a
change of pace? For the most
part, the diplomats were inclined
to wait for more definite, con-
crete acts.
Celebrating on the theme
that the West and the Commu-
mist world could live in peace to-
gether, Leontyev said:
"The possibility of co-opera-
tion was manifested still more
vividly during the war against
the fascist states. The Soviet
Union, the United States and
Britain harmoniously cooper
ated in that war as allies, help
ing each other and co-ordinat-
ing their military efforts. This
cooperation had splendid re-
sults-a common victory over
the enemy"

Only yesterday the British
Foreign Office disclosed that
Russian Foreign Minister v. M.
Molotov had personally prom
ised to help obtain the release
of nine British subjects and an
Irish missionary held by the
North Korean Reds.
Only two days ago the Rus
sian commander in Germany
had proposed that he and his
counterpart Briton, Sir Ivone

to prevent any more incidents
like the shooting down of a
British bomber by Russian MICS.
