President. the purpose of the amendment is to assure that the Senate will be given an opportunity to review any agreement which is reached between the U.S. Government and the Government of Czechoslovakia with regard to U.S. claims against that Government before the agreement goes into effect. The claims involved are claims for property rights or interest owned by U.S. citizens taken or naturalized on or prior to January 1. 1945. by the Government of Czechoslovakia. It should be made clear that those claims are not for war damage or injury of that type. They are compensation for deliberate seizure by the Communist government of Czechoslovakia for which no recompense has yet been offered.
