Xmas Tree
Plans fizzle
BERLIN W! Communist plan
ning went haywire in the Christ
mas tree department yesterday.
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.

VIENNA ( Antonin Zapotocky,
one of the leaders in the Com
munist seizure of Czechoslovakia
and its president since 1953, died
early today in Prague after more
than two years of heart trouble.
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.
