Change Of Mind On Marshall Plan

Sensitive To Red Criticism

Prague, July 10. Czechoslovakia-the only European nation within Russia's sphere of influence to accept the Anglo-French invitation to the "Save Europe" talks starting in Paris on Saturday-changed its mind tonight.

An official rejection was issued by the Czechoslo- vak News Agency, which said that the Czecho- slovak Cabinet today decided on a rejection because an acceptance "would be interpreted as an act directed against its friendship, with the Soviet Union and her other allies (mean- ing the rest of Europe)."
