Czech Paper Prints
Prominent Jews List

Prague (JTA) — The
Czechoslovak attorney gen-
eral has filed criminal
charges against the weekly
publication Politika for prin-
ting a list of prominent Jews
in contemporary Czech cul-
ture.
While it has not yet been
decided whether to arrest
Politika's editor, Josef
Tomas, he agreed to suspend
publication of the weekly
until the investigation is
concluded.
That is welcome news for
the Jewish community here,
which has long complained
that the paper resembled
Der Sturmer, the Nazi pro-
paganda organ.
Politika's publisher is set
to go on trial this week for
other charges of inciting
racial hatred.
And the yearlong in-
vestigation of the publica-
tion has had other ramifica-
tions. A police investigator,
Ilja Pravda, who concluded
in November that the week-
ly was not anti-Semitic, was
demoted when his superiors
decided to continue the in-
quiry.
But it was Politika's latest,
and for the time being final,
issue that sparked outrage
across Czechoslovakia,
which will separate on Jan.
1 into separate Czech and
Slovak republics.
Under the headline,
"Partial List of Jews and
Half-breeds in the Current
Culture of the Czech Repub-
lic," Politika listed the
names of 168 people working
in the arts.
Attorney General Jiri
Setina charged that the list
aimed to split society three
weeks before the formation
of the new Czech state.
Among those with no ac-
tual Jewish ancestry on the
list was former
Czechoslovak President
Vaclav Havel, a longtime
dissident writer, whom the
paper has previously de-
scribed as a puppet of Jews
and Freemasons.
Mr. Havel used a Dec. 10
news conference to speak out
against the country's in-
creased anti-Semitic at-
mosphere, which lent itself
to such a publication.
"These are strange, ner-
vous times," he said, also us-
ing the word "alarming" to
describe the country's at-
mosphere as it approaches
its division.
Mr. Havel, who is expected

to be elected president of the
new Czech state, likened the
publication to those which
appeared in the part of
Czechoslovakia known as
the Sudetenland, which the
Nazis annexed in March
1939.
He also said it was "exact-
ly what used to be written"
in 1930s Germany and led to
concentration camps.
"It is as if the word
`intellectual' has again
become an insult," he said.
Mr. Tomas, the weekly's
editor, introduced the list
with an article attacking
"Slays from around the Jor-
dan River" for "having
made Prague their second-
in-importance world center"
and for "displaying every-
where their characteristic
physiognomies."
"Dense Czechs carelessly
tolerate Jewish plundering,"
Mr. Tomas wrote. Like Mr.
Havel, Jewish communal
leaders said they heard ech-
oes of the Nazi era.
Jiri Danicek, president,
and Tomas Kraus, secretary-

Politika's

publisher is set to
go on trial this
week.

general of the Federation of
Jewish Communities of the
Czech Republic, issued a
statement in which they
recalled that such "lists of
people to be liquidated" used
to be published by pro-Nazi
newspapers in the protec-
torate of Bohemia and
Moravia under Adolf Hitler.
"But in a democratic, legal
state, such as the new Czech
republic ought to be, it must
be clearly stated where the
limits of freedom of expres-
sion are and where infr-
ingement of the rights of in-
dividuals and groups begins.
"From this point of view,
the handling of this case by
the judiciary will be impor-
tant not only for the case
itself and not only for Jews,"
they said.
Several cultural organiza-
tions put out a joint declara-
tion in which they accused
Politika of discrediting the
country's democracy and
openly taking up the tradi-
tions of Der Sturmer.
The signatories included
the Pen Club, Union of Fine
Arts, Community of Dra-
