A Czechoslovakian radio commentator who warned last week that the seeds of anti-Semitism were being sown anew in his country, told an audience here today that the “Czechs’ struggle for freedom and liberty and Israel’s struggle for peace and security are inseparably linked.” Peter Pithard is attending an international symposium on peace here sponsored by the leftist magazine “New Outlook”, as the official representative of the Czech Writers Association. Another participant is Prof. Georgio A. Lafira, former mayor of Florence.
