THE EVENING CZECHS WAGE WAR AGAINST AGITATORS Government Equally Stern With National Socialists and Communists. Special Dispatch to The Star. PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, May 26.— Because it is a peaceful, democratic nation, Crzechoslovakia is determined to repress extremists, at whatever end of the political scale they may appear.

For the most part they are of German origin and the most active of these Nazis are stu- dents, Their object is union with Ger- many. To end their machinations the government has placed the leaders un- der arrest, dissolved all their pseudo sports clubs and forbidden the dhplny of the swastika. Similar energy is being shown in |he‘ repressicn of Reds, who had seized upon | \'ecentt stlr‘ure;l in 142 coal mines as an | 0] unity for increased propaganda. glmuluneoualy the lgv?mx'nem is proceeding to divide among farmers the land remaining at its disposition under the agrarian reform laws.
