President. the trials currently taking place in Prague and Brno are a manifestation of the Communist system. not an aberration from it. They are paralleled by the increased repression of dissidents which has been taking place throughout the Soviet Union since this January. They are paralleled further in the repressions in Red China which has resulted in a flight of refugees to Hong Kong which. last month. was greater than any other month in the last 10 years. Mr. President. as the West gears up for another round of international conferences aimed at "EastWest understanding." let us not easily disregard the lesson of the Czech invasionfor this. in a very brutal and tragic way. forcefully underlines the Communist realitythe reality of a system whose objectives are power through total control.
