Germans Flee From Prague Toward Lines Of Americans By HAL BOYLE , I'llAUUE,, muy v iLciuycaj yit't Konrad licnlcln, tho traitorous saulciter of the Sudctcnland, and Karl Frank, bloodthirsty nnzt military Rovernor of Czechoslov akia, were taken into custody by American troops today, as German soldiers fled westward from this shattered capital toward American lines. Henlcln, the Sudeten organiz er who paved the way for Hit ler's march Into Czechoslovakia, was caged by tho first division. Victorious Russian troops paraded through tho city amid the wild acclaim of the populace, which lost 0000 casualties, by Czech account, in the last ditch bitter three-day battle with the iibzIs. "The dead and wounded arc so many they still ore uncount ed," declared Vaclav Capck, spokesman for tho Czech nation al committee. In describing the last major battle of the European war, which ended at 0 a. m., to day when the Czech flag whs hoisted over tho last Gorman strongpolnt. . Outburst of Joy The refugee, crowded city last European capital to bo lib eratederupted In a mad out burst of relief and Joy after the first reconnaissance elements of the soviet army had raced into Prague from the northwest at S a. m., after a 33-milo over night sprint. Fur-capped Russians, looking like Daniel Boones on motor cycles, were almost mobbed by the exultant throngs. Every red army vehicle soon was overflow ing with pretty Czech girls whom the G. I's. have voted the best looking in Europe. Flee Toward Yanks Westward from Prague to the American lines at Pllsen stretched a 45-milo column of broken German troops fleeing toward Yank positions to escape being taken prisoner by the Rus sians. Among them were thousands of S. S. troops, whom the Czechs accuse of slaughtering thousands of unarmed boys and men in tho last three days, and of herding women and children before their tanks to protect their vehicles from the patriot's fire. In the 56-mile line of glum Germans streaming toward Pll sen were scores of colonels and personnel many of them hoof ing it along the highway with ban-footed privates and hun dreds of wives and children of German occupation troops, try ing to ride on dilapidated cars and carts in this long column of woe and red-faced distress. Wooden Rifles Set For Disposal WASHINGTON, May 10 (P) Those wooden training rifles the army used early In the war will be sold as surplus property. The OPA, announcing a retail price ceiling of $4.50 each, said today it expects a market will be found among state, and home guard organizations and schools. None of the 15,000 rifles will be sold to Individuals. WIOnSEESEXAMPLE OF NAZI CRUELTIES WASHINGTON, May 10 (P) Americans must look on German prison camps as evidence of how ruthless their enemy in the next war may bo, Rep. Mott (R-Ore.) declared here yesterday. Rep. Mott was a member of a 12-man congressional delegation which toured German concentra tion camps at the Invitation of General Elsenhower. "The prison camp system un questionably was a carefully or ganized scheme to exterminate all enemies of nazism," Mott told reporters. "If England or America had been overrun, our fate also would have been Just what Ger many wanted it to be." Mott said the German people understand the war is lost but show no humiliation, no remorse. "Worst of all," he said, "are the youngsters of 10, 12 or 14 years. They are arrogant, super cilious. They stand alongside the road spitting at their con querors, at the cars as they pass. "It is this generation upon which Germany must build for the future and it is a foundation which must, itself, be entirely rebuilt mentally."

POWER SALE TO AID BOISE, Idaho, May 10 Sale of electricity will bear 72 per cent of the burden under a revised financing program to re pay the government the cost of the half-billion dollar Columbia basin project, including Grand Coulee dam, it was disclosed yes terday in a report released to congress by Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes. The repayment program was formulated by the bureau of reclamation, the Bonneville power administration and the in terior department's division of power. "This revenue from power sales will greatly reduce the amount which water users will be required to pay toward con struction costs of the irrigation system," the report said. It estimated that payments will average $85 per acre during the 40-year repayment period for water users.
