Memorial Dedicated DUMBBELLS
To Child War Dead
The bereaved parents of Czecho-Slovakia watched in silence last Friday as Archbishop Josef Beran of Prague dedicated the world's first monu- 'ment to the millions of unknown children who died in World War II.
Mrs Jan Storck from Lidice was there, remembering her plump, smiling, 13-year-old Jaroslava with her long dark braids. The braids, still in neat red ribbons, were the last things she saw when the SS men took her daughter away forever near Kladno, nearly five years ago.

German agricultural experts are pessimistic about next au- tumn's harvest in the Russian zone of Germany, in normal times the nation's "bread bas- ket." -The severe cold of the past win- ter and the subsequent floods, which destroyed thousands of Acres of farmlands, have left their mark, officials sald.

The Berlia newspaper, Telegraf. said the harvest outlook was for only the normal intake and even less than last year's poor crop. The 1940 harvest gures showed, com- pared to 1938: bread grains 45.4 per- cent; borley 30 percent; potatoes 63.8 porcent and vegetables 71.0 percent.
