Mr. President. the more than 700 intellectuals who make up the Czechoslovak Society of Arts and Sciences will hold their second congress on the campus of Columbia University on September 11 through 13. Many of these college professors. artists. musicians. and writers come from the ranks of political refugees who escaped Czechoslovakia after the Communist seizure. But others are Americanborn artists and scientists who share with their fellow Czechs an intense feeling of devotion to this land which gives them the opportunity of selfexpression in the atmosphere of freedom. The first congress was held here in Washington 2 years ago and was a pronounced success.
