Patriots and Refugees From Behind the Iron Curtain
The British Council director in Poland resigns to become a Polish citizen and marry a Polish woman, echoing other Western officials who joined refugees. A Czech Mission head in Berlin fled to West Germany accusing communist rule of corruption and police-state dictatorship after 16 months.
