For weeks East Berliners have been waiting for the erection of a promised noel tree a 100-year- old, 110-foot giant on Marx-En- kels Platz, the city's Red Square. Finally, out of the forest of Thuringa the shimmering pine was hauled into the square. En thusiastic citizens gathered to watch complicated cable machin ery raise the tree. The cables went berserk. One pulled one way, the other another way, and the tree snapped in two As the pieces were being hauled away, Ncues Deutschland, the Communist party newspaper, rushed into print with the com forting news that the Red regime ,has sent an urgent order to Thur inga: Get another tree quick.

Radio Prague announced the death. The veteran Communist would have been 73 next month. He had been in poor health since suffering a severe heart attack in August 1935. Nine days ago he had another heart attack- and the Prague Sanatorium said last night his condition had deteriorated. Zapotocky was one of the found ers of the Communist party in Czechoslovakia. That was in 1921, a year after a meeting in Russia with. Lenin which began a lasting loyalty to the Soviet Union. Conservative in his communism, Zapotocky did not go along with the policy changes of Soviet. Pre mier Georgi Malenkov after Sta lin died m 1953. Under his influ ence as president, Czechoslovakia retained the memory and symbol ism of Stalinism after Nikita Khrushchev began to chip away at them in Russia. Despite some arrests of youths, Czechoslovakia under Zapotocky remained quiet when Poland on one side and Hungary on the oth- Vet To Mark 115th Birthday HOUSTON, Tex. Wl Music loving Walter Williams, the oldest living Civil War veteran, cele brates his 115th birthday tomor row. A Western band will play some of his favorite tunes. The white-haired, tobacco-chewing Confederate veteran is three years older than John. Sailing of Slant, Va., the only other living Civil War veteran. Williams' daughter Mrs. Willie Mae Bowles said a small party with the band, cake and some punch was planned. Friends were expected to drop by all day but no big celebration was planned. Williams has always loved mu sic. Bed-ridden for the past six months, he keeps a radio near his bed and turns it on loud when lis tening to music. He rode in an ambulance dur ing the Veterans Day parade Monday and said he enjoyed lis tening to the bands and hearing the crowds. The party will be marred for Williams by the absence of his wife, who died Nov. 2 at the age of 84 from a heart ailment. The couple had been married 64 years. Williams does not know she is dead. Mrs. Bowles has postponed tell ing her father of his wife's death until after his birthday because of the effect the news might have. Williams advice for a long life is, Lead a clean, moral me, get up for breakfast, stay around for dinner and go to bed with supper. He has boasted that he would live to be 120. "My grandpappy lived to 119," he said once. "I'm going to beat that. Don't see why I can't if noth ing turns up." er were inflamed last fall with anti-Soviet feeling. In Vienna, Antonin Novotny, first secretary of the Czechoslovak Communist party, and J a r o m l r Dolansky, deputy premier and a member of the party Politburo. were considered favorites to suc ceed Zapotocky. Prime Minister Vilem Siroky is a Slovak, and the presidency so far has not gone to that minority group. Zapotocky was born Dec. 19, 1884, into an atmosphere of'revolu- tion. His father, a tailor, , in an industrial area near Kladno, was one of the founders of the first Socialist party in that part of what was then the Austro-nun-garian Empire. Zapotocky sided with the ex treme left when the Czech Social ist party split in 1920, leading to founding of the Communist party In 1929 he , became secretary of the Communist Trade Union Fed eration and began to build a pop ularity with workers that later helped him to the presidency. Imprisoned by the Germans from 1939 until 1945, Zapotocky returned to Prague after World War II and worked with Klement Gottwald, virtual boss of the Czech Communist party. With Russian backing, they seized power in 1948 and turned Czechoslovakia into a Soviet satellite. Gottwald became president and Zapotocky was premier from 1948 to 1953, when Gottwald died. After 1953 Zapotocky remained in the background of Czech public life. With collective leadership the Communist by-word after Stalin died, no "cult of personality" was built up about Zapotocky. China Charges Plot By U.S. HONG KONG W Peiping radio charged today that American made arms seized by Hong Kong police last weekend were intend ed for Nationalist Chinese sabo tage and terrorist activities in Red China. The radio, quoling Communist newspapers in Hong Kong, said the arms had been brought into Hong Kong from Formosa and hidden here by American and Chi nese Nationalist secret agents. Hong Kong police over the week end seized two caches of Ameri can made arms, including 16 pistols and eight submachineguns. They arrested five Chinese men and three women but refused to say where the .arms came from or what was to1 be their use.
