    I have just returned from the castle from meeting the President. Today in the morning, I submitted to him my proposal for ac- ceptance of the ministers´ resignations who resigned on 20 February of this year and at the same time I proposed to the President a list of people who should substitute for the gov- ernment and reconstruct it.

  • February 21, 1948 Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948
    Digital Archive digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org International History Declassified February 21, 1948 Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948 Citation: “Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948,” February 21, 1948, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, Archive of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Warsaw), file 217, packet 16, pp. 1-11. Translated by Anna Elliot-Zielinska. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/117117 Summary: In the midst of a cabinet crisis in Czechoslovakia that would lead to the February Communist coup, several delegates from the Polish Socialist Party were sent to Prague to spread socialist influence. The crisis is outlined, as well as a thorough report of the conference in Prague. Credits: This document was made possible with support from the Leon Levy Foundation. Original Language: Polish Contents: English Translation In accordance with the resolution of the Political Commission and General Secretariat of the Central Executive Committee (CKW) of the Polish Socialist Party (PPS), made late on the night of 20 February 1948, Com. Kazimierz Rusinek, Adam Rapacki, Henryk Jablonski, and Stefan Arski were delegated to go to Prague. This decision was made after a thorough analysis of the political situation in Czechoslovakia brought on by a cabinet crisis there. The goal of the delegation was to inform the Central Committee of the Czechoslovak Social Democratic Party (SD) about the basic stance of the PPS and possibly to influence the SD Central Committee in the spirit of leftist-socialist and revolutionary politics. The motive behind the decision of the Political Commission and General Secretariat was the fear that, from the leftist socialist point of view, the situation at the heart of SD after the Brno Congress was taking an unfavorable shape.

    ARTICLE RADOMÍR V. LUZA (New Orleans, U.S.A.) February 1948 and the Czechoslovak Road to Socialism In the period from 1944 to 1948 the hard uncompromising substance of Stalinism fell upon the countries of Eastern Europe. Following the iron- bound dictums of Stalin,they became tailored to the tone and ambitions of Moscow under the form of People's Democracies.* The emergence of com- munism as the ruling system from within the bounds of a single country pre- sented one of the most important events in the history of the international Communist movement. In the writings of Communist Czech and Soviet his- torians the era has developed an identity of its own as a distinct, interim phase in the transition from capitalism to communism.1 They see the coup d'etat of 1948 in Prague as crucially important because of the Czechoslovak strategic position, which "was of immense significance" for Moscow because the outcome of the conflict between the Communist and democratic forces in the Czechoslovak Republic could have either helped definitively establish Communist power in Eastern Europe or could have blocked at least temporar- ily the path to Soviet expansion not only in Czechoslovakia but in other countries as well.2 In fact, in the late 1940s both the East and the West *The nature of the subject, the recentness of the period, and the policy of the Czechoslovak and Soviet authorities in classifyingrecords have made it necessary for the author to draw mainly on primary source material included in the more scholarly and re- liable accounts of the Czech communist historians of the 1960s.

Williams With this issue of the Calendar we are happy to announce the inauguration of a new policy with reference to what reports of species shall or shall not be admitted to the published records of the Calendar. Up to this time the Editor has had to rely pretty largely on his personal judgment in such matters, and often it has been no easy task to pass upon the validity of sight records involving rare or unusual birds. Now the assistance of a recently organized special committee of the Kirtland Bird Club will be available as a group to whom such questions may be referred. The members of this committee are B. P. Bole, Jr., Donald L. Newman and William E. Scheele. 1947 Christmas Bird Count – The eighth annual Christmas Bird Count conducted by the Kirtland Bird Club, was held December 27, 1947. As in other years, the territory covered was to the east of Cleveland, including the Lake Erie shore, the Chagrin Valley and the Shaker Lakes.

KAPLANPROOFS2_10.24.19 10/28/2019 1:48 PM ORIGINS OF NATO: 1948-1949 Lawrence S. Kaplan* OVERVIEW The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) originated in the trauma of World War II. The human cost of that war at last motivated Europe to remove the barriers to economic integration that had promoted warfare among the nation-states since the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648.1 The devastation of western Europe also inspired the United States as the major victor in that war to abandon its traditional isolation from European political and military affairs.2 Accelerating these fundamental changes was the awareness on both sides of the Atlantic of the threat Soviet-led Communism posed to the future of Western democracy.3 However, recognizing the necessity did not equate with effective immediate action to cope with these two challenges in the post-war world. Too many obstacles had to be overcome.

I PREFACE Ma]or Economic Changes in 1948 is the third of a series of reports dealing with world economic conditions, prepared by the Department of Economic Affairs of the United Nations. The first, Economic Report: Salient Features of the World Economic Situation 1945-47, was issued in January 1948; a supple- ment to that report, Selected World Economic Indices, was issued in July 1948. The purpose of the present publication is to make generally available a preliminary review of important economic developments which occurred during 1948. It is being issued at this time in order to provide the Economic and Social Council with a useful factual background for discussion of the current world economic situation at its eighth session in February 1949. A comprehensive economic survey of the world situation will be issued towards the middle of 1949. That survey will take account both of the regional economic reports which will become available during the early months of 1949 from the secre- tariats of the regional economic commissions of the United Nations in Europe, Latin America and the Far East, and of the economic activities of the specialized agencies. Part I of Major Economic Changes in 1948 provides a broad picture of the main economic develop- ments during the year 1948, based on data, necessarily incomplete for the year, which were available at the time the report was prepared.
