VICTIMS OF DICTATORS
(Rec. 12.30 p.m.) LONDON, Oct. 6. A Zurich message says that four more Czechs, two of whom were army officers, were sentenced to death and executed at Prague on a charge of high treason. Two Rumanian Iron Guards, charged with an attempt against the fife of Antonescu on September 30, were executed in Bucharest. The Vichy News Agency says that Antonescu is urging the prefects and high civil servants to do their utmost supplies and improve the living conditions in Rumania. He admitted that the year’s harvest was one of the w-orst on record. “Agriculture is not only disorganised by the war but we have been obliged to cope with earthquakes, floods, and drought,” declared Antonescu. An independent Belgian news agency reports that Marcel Rondoz, leader of the Rexists at Spa, died a few hours after an attack by Belgian patriots.
