MASARYK “DIED WHEN FREEDOM DIED”
PARIS, March 11
The French Foreign Minister, M. Bidault, in a tribute to M. Masaryk, said: “Jan Masaryk, faithful to the patriotic traditions of his father, died when freedom died.” The French National Assembly, during the debate on foreign affairs, expressed “fraternal greetings to the Czechoslovak democrats who are forced into silence and deprived of their essential liberties.”
M. Bidault said that the events in Eastern Europe had similar characteristics which “don’t please us.” All deputies except the Communists approved of the Government’s foreign policy.
