CZECHS EXECUTED
ALLEGED ESPIONAGE Rec. 11.30 a.m. LONDON, Aug. 21. Vichy reports that 12 Czechs were executed at Prague on Wednesday, including Idenek Schraoranz, former chief of the Czechoslovak Prime Minister's Press section. All the victims belonged to a secret organisation fomenting high treason. Schmoranz, with the help of officers of the former Czechoslovak General Staff, is alleged to have organised a Press Service, which was really an antiGerman espionage organisation.
