Three former Czech Jews visiting relatives were expelled from Czechoslovakia, according to a Prague radio broadcast. The Jews, Arthur Laufer, of Frankfurt and his two daughters, had been visiting family grave sites when they were ordered out. Laufer told the International Council of Jews from Czechoslovakia that he had engaged in no political activities whatsoever and did not know the reason for his ouster. He is an official interpreter at the country court in Essen, West Germany.
