CZECHS ON EDGE OF REVOLT

Ruthless Policy Of Germany MANY REBELS BEING ARRESTED Forced Sale Of Foreign Property (Independent Cable Service.) (Received July 30, 8.10 p.m.) LONDON, July 30. The Prague correspondent of the “Sunday Express” says that ody a spark is required to set off a devolution in Bohemia and Moravia. Foreign observers are becoming increasingly unwelcome. Germany is desiring to continue her colonization completely and ruthlessly under the present conditions. Under the latest decree ail foreign property must be registered before July 31. and then offered lor sale at a price fixed by the purchasing authorities. The police have failed to catch a peasant who turned their own machine-gun on 27 Germans after a German officer shot dead a Czech peasant. Another message received from Prague today states that two Germans and five Czechs were killed in rioting in Flany, whence 50,000 Czech peasants have been taken from their homes to build roads along the PolishHungarian frontiers. . Sixty Czechs have been arrested in Prague and accused of belonging to a Czech liberation organization. They have been sent to a concentration camp in Germany.
