Swedish Embassy Aide
Indictedin FundLoss

A former Swedish Embassy
accountant was indicted by a
District grand jury here today
on nine counts each of grand
larceny, embezzlement and
false pretenses in the removal
from Embassy funds of $4,000,
Per AXE Skantze, SO, of Bene-
dict, Md, has already been in
dicted in absentia by a Stock
holm court ''on grounds there
was reasonable basis for sus-
pecting him of having embez-
Zled' $4,000 in missing En-
bassy funds, according to En-
bassy officials.
The indictment handed down
by the grand jury here today
charges that Skantze got au-
thorized Embassy officials to
sign checks = ranging from
$1,000 to $2,000-ostensibly for
Embassy expenditures, but ac-
tually took the money from an
Embassy account at Riggs Ma
tional Bank for his own use.
The 27-count indictment
charges that Skantze did this
on nine occasions from Febru-
ary, 1856 to July. 1857.
Assistant United States At
torney John C. Conliff said he
understands SkantZe retired
from his Embassy job in Sep
tember, 1858.
However, a statement issued
by the Embassy following the
former accountants indict-
ment here today. says that
Skantze had left his job a few
weeks before discovery of the
shortage in funds "for reasons
completely unrelated" to the
then unknown fund shortage.
The Embassy statement said
that an investigation Of the
case by Swedish police dis
closed that in 1855 Mr.. Shantz
had changed his residence
status in this country from
that of diplomat" to resident
immigrant" by application to
the United States Immigration
and Naturalization Service.
1t was this change in status
which resulted in the inability
of Swedish authorities to order
Skantze back to Sweden and
require him to face charges
there.
Therefore, the Embassy re-
ported the case to United
States Attorney Oliver Gasch
here, and today's indictment
resulted.
Mr.. Skantze had subsequent
ly been running a chicken farm
at Waldorf, Md, until about
year ago, an Embassy spokes-
man said. The spokesman
added that Mr.. Skantz, who
had held the rank of vice
consul at the Embassy, is now
working at the Benedict Hotel
in Benedict, Md.

Palm Sunday, April 10, found
the church filled to capacity. Rev
NJ. L Simmons chose for his sub
jeCt, King Triumphant" and text,
St Luke 1910, IF these shall hold
their peace the very rocks will cry
out" Rev. Simmons opened the
very inspiring message with the
statement that Jesus was a radi-
ant, dynamic power in this COM
munity; that He had a look that
invited loyalty and devotion to
friends; Jesus had an answer all
His own and that He was God
wrapped in human flesh.
The speaker further mentioned
that no writer had been able to
appropriate His greatness and no
artist has ever painted His face
He pointed out that there is some
thing about Jesus that demands
respect, He was faultless; Jesus
took a cross that assembled shame
and disgrace and made it a cross
of redemption and that Jesus came
to seek and save that which was
lost.
Rev. Simmons emphasized that
His coming to this world spells
victory; that nothing can be more
majestic than humility and that
Jesus taught a lesson before He
left the earth that we were born
to serve one another In conclu
sion the Pastor stated Jesus is a
King because He meets all human
needs, He is a King because He
will lift your weary spirit; He is
a King when one is sick and the
pains are excruciating.

their workers are in order, and
that for those without such passes
immediate arrangements be made
to obtain temporary documents for
them.

Yet, another source of trouble
for the government is coming from
the business and industrial leaders.
Noting that they have undergone
severe economic reCessions because
Of the racial crisis, they appealed
to Prime Minister Hendrix F. Yer

Among the items on the agenda
is a demand that the government

policy which brought about the
enormously costly emergency. Not
only has business and industry suf-

of confidence by foreign investors
Early approximations put the loss
in production within the last three
