Racial Trouble

LONDON (UPD-The demon

cans Wednesday and today ap-
peared to be a elimination Of
racial tensions within the Com
munist bloc that have existed
for some time.
These tensions resulted In
several other racial incidents
involving African students ear
lier this year.
Last May 10 organized groups
of CzechoSlovakian students
marched through the streets of
Prague and beat up every col
ored person they came across,
according to Western observers
who witnessed the incidents.
AS a result, several African
students in Prague abandoned
their scholarships and left the
country.
Last February, African stu
dents who had studied in Mos
COW and Bulgaria reached the
West and charged that they
had been exploited by the Com
munist authorities.
Rioting broke out in the
streets Of Sofia on Feb. IL. Re-
ports said c~lub-Swinging police
broke up demonstrations of
Ghanaian students calling for
the release of seven leaders of
the Pan-African Students Union
who had been arrested.
Seventeen Ghanaian students
left the country, charging Bull
garian raciSm and brutality.
More students left later and
one Of their spokesman in So
fla sent out an appeal for help.
The spokesman said Bulgarian
authorities had made it diff
cult for the students to leave
and that 80 of them were re-
to a compound near
the city.
Three weeks later five more
African students left Bulgaria.
They charged that despite Com
munist claims of no diScrimina-
lion they sometimes were
called "black monkeys by res
identS of Sofia.
Later other African students
left their studies in the Soviet
Union. An Ethiopian veterinary
left Brno, Czschoslovalia, be
cause of alleged inferior school
ing and political indoctrination.
