Czech diplomat to flee U N after deportation threat
Miroslav Nacvalac Czechoslovak UN delegate planned to depart for home today to escape deportation as a spy. The 39 year old, No 3 man in the Czechoslovak UN delegation, altered his plans after Washington revoked his UN mission status, labeling him an illegal alien. The U S demanded he leave or be deported, while Prague denied the espionage charges and accused the U S of violating the headquarters agreement. The incident could affect UN headquarters politics as the bloc pushes to move from New York.
