MAY DAY Left-Wing Parties Celebrate May Day The Communist Party (KSCM) and the Social Democrats (CSSD), the two most powerful Czech left-wing parties, celebrated May Day at meetings organized in Prague. The Communists held their celebration on the Letna plain once again (it was the traditional site of Communist meetings in the past) and the Social Democrats in the area of the Tesco department store, previously known as May (Maj). There was criticism of the government and the economic situation at both meetings. However, on the Letna plain the criticism was expressed much more strongly. The Communists started their demonstration listening to the former federal anthem, including the Slovak part, and then actress Jirina Svorcova recited Jan Neruda's poem Go on. Communist Chairman Miroslav Grebenicek had a 30-minutes, militant speech, in which he criticized the economic policy of the government. He called the government incompetent and responsible for the current crisis of the economy. "They have moved the property of the nation into the hands of frauds7, speculators and foreign capital," he said. Furthermore, he attacked the restitutions of church property. He spoke about the greediness of church prelates and about the fact that the property is going "into the hands of owners whose decision-making center is outside the Czech Republic - in the Vatican." President Vaclav Havel, according to Grebenicek "can only manage empty blather" and the government reacts only to wide public disobedience and mass protests. "The tomorrow of this republic is not frauds and speculators but it is you, honest working people," said Grebenicek at the end of the meeting. The audience consisted mainly of retirees, and organizers estimated 20,000 people attended the meeting. Some sources, on the other hand, estimated 5,000 less visitors. The meeting was finished with the singing of the Internationale. Social Democrat Chairman Milos Zeman made a speech to about 300 or 400 sympathizers. He also criticised economic problems, placing responsibility for the problems with the government. "The Civic Democratic Party promised before the elections that salaries would be doubled, now the party has doubled rents," said Zeman. Nevertheless, he said that the Social Democrats would not call for premature elections, in spite of the fact that the party is ready for it. After the speech he started discussing with the crowd, tossing out his usual assortment of many bon mots. At the end he wished his sympathizers a nice day and went to a refreshment stand for a beer. Honza Mazak/Zdenek Janda May 1 Celebrations Not only were the politicians shmoozing and students partying, but hundreds of Prague celebrants clambered up Petrin hill in search of blossoming cherry trees. The innocent Czech tradition of kissing your sweetheart under the blooms has turned into a mass stampede, leaving in its wake torn trees and bruised, trampled grass. But now even that is not enough; businessmen and hawkers are taking their turn at practicing their trades, selling balloons and gingerbread. One enterprising fellow even opened a stand under Karel Hynek Macha's statue, the first stop lovers must make. Karolina Cebrovska/Andrea Snyder May 1: Time to Love and Set Kissing Records The Myslbek shopping center wrote its name in history according to Guinness May 1 when, during the course of the day, 629 couples kissed under a single blossoming cherry tree. It was organized by Pelhrimov's Dobry den agency, who records events and curiosities. They were inspired by the Czech tradition that a woman must be kissed under a blooming cherry tree, so that she will bloom all year and not dry up. After 7-Year Break, May King Crowned About 700 university students met at Prague's Palach Square May 1 to elect a May king. Competing with avantgarde artist Milan Knizak and poet Eugen Brikcius, Jiri Machacek won the crown. Fans call him Dr. Vinnetou, when DJ-ing for radio station Limonadovy Joe. A Mardi Gras-like parade led through the center of Prague to Hunter's Island for the election and an afternoon of theater and other events. The parade was only complicated when a group of anarchists protesting the possibility of school fees crossed paths with the May Day celebrants on a bridge. The anarchists blocked the bridge, but were peacefully dispersed by police later. The students' May Day originated in the 19th century. In 1965, beat poet Allen Ginsberg was crowned May King. He waited 25 years to pass the crown in 1990 to Milan Horak, one of the student leaders in 1989's Velvet Revolution. Karolina Cebrovska and Pavel Novak/Andrea Snyder FROM OTHER EVENTS OF THE PAST WEEK (April 30 - May 7) Investment and Postal Bank Managers Arrested Investment and Postal Bank (Investicni a postovni banka - IPB) General Director Jiri Tesar and his Deputy for Investment Banking Libor Prochazka were detained by the police April 29 (see Carolina 245). The top managers of the third-largest Czech banking institution were accused of embezzlement and breaching the commercial code. They were detained in prison April 29, so as not to influence witnesses. The state holds more than 30 per cent of the bank's stock, and its upcoming privatization has provided for much speculation about political maneuvering behind the arrests. The bankers purported crime was in using 180 million crowns to buy an 80-per-cent share in the Military Project Institution Deco City (VPU) for IPB. They bought the shares for more than twice the market value from a Luxembourg company, PTE International. The bank has been buying property on Jindrisska street, which intersects Prague's Wenceslas Square, for quite a while, planning to make it their office and business center. That is why they bought VPU, which has its main assets in a building and the land along the street. The bank bought the entire institution for tax reasons and at the wish of the seller. Many economic and financial experts say the deal was a standard business transaction. Jiri Fremuth/Andrea Snyder Communist Leaders Charged with Treason The Prague State Attorney's office charged former Communist Party leaders Milous Jakes, Jozef Lenart and Karel Hoffmann with treason May 2. They allegedly cooperated with occupying forces in 1968, when armies of Warsaw Pact countries invaded then-Czechoslovakia to quell the Prague Spring. After a 12-year investigation, the case has come to court. It may result in sentences of 12 years to life. The Czech daily Pravo reported May 3 that Lenart and Jakes, according to the accusation, agreed with the Soviet ambassador then to support and participate in the so-called Workers-Farmers Government, which was being prepared. In doing so, they would have committed the crime of treason. At the time, President Ludvik Svoboda refused to name a government. Hoffman was the director of communications. He was to be in contact with Soviet soldiers and to ensure conditions conducive to stopping radio and television broadcast, and even ordered broadcasts to cease August 20. That would also constituted treason. David Vlk/Andrea Snyder Prague Celebrates 52nd Anniversary of Anti-Nazi Uprising Prague Mayor Jan Koukal, Chairmen of the lower and upper houses of Parliament - Milos Zeman and Petr Pithart - and other representatives paid tribute to memory of those who died during the May 1945 Prague Uprising at several memorials in the Czech capital. On May 5, Koukal laid wreaths at a memorial plaque at the Old Town Hall along with Jakub Cermin, chairman of the Czech Union of Freedom Fighters. Zeman, chairman of the Social Democrats, made a speech in front of Czech Radio headquarters, where an emergency broadcast started the uprising, a call for help for Prague at 12:33 p.m. 52 years ago. Zeman said we must recall our history time and again in order not to experience tragic events once more in the future. Tributes also continued next day, when a number of ambassadors took part in a memorial service at a Dablice Cemetery, where some of the fallen are buried. At the same time Pithart, chairman of the Czech Senate, and others visited the Kobylisy shooting range where many anti-Nazi fighters and others not involved in the resistance movement were executed. Pavel Novak, Jan Mazak/Jan Majer Police Suppressed a Demonstration Against Ruthless of Policemen Many minor injuries and a broken rib. That is the result of the police crackdown on about 200 young people demonstrating in front of the Interior Ministry in Prague May 3. The crowd wanted to mark the first anniversary of the harsh police raid in Prague's Propast rock club and to remind officials that no policemen have yet been punished or declared responsible for the allegedly groundless assault. The police started the suppression after the door of the ministry was broken by a bottle. "I am not aware of any errors," said Antonin Fedorko, head of Prague's uniformed police. "We asked the people to leave several times, and only then the order to push them out was given," he said. But Czech Press Agency photographer Tomas Zelezny rejects this version. "I tried to explain to the policemen I'm a journalist, but they knocked me down and said they couldn't see my press card well," Zelezny said. The police arrested 12 people, 8 policemen were injured. One year ago, masked policemen armed with machine guns went searching for drugs in the Propast club. Although they found only three marijuana joints, they cruelly assaulted guests of the club. Lucie Podesvova/Jan Majer ODA's Proposal Angers Klaus Last week the government coalition agreed that the constitutional amendment bill on larger administrative regions will be given to Parliament by the end of May and will be drafted by the Interior Ministry (see Carolina 244). Nevertheless, coalition partner the Civic Democratic Alliance (ODA) May 2 drafted their own proposal. It shows 13 regions, in contrast to the nine assumed by coalition boss the Civic Democratic Party (ODS). ODA explained this activity by their will to accelerate the adoption and also force the ministries concerned to speed up their work on related bills. ODA's effort should culminate with establishing a date for municipal elections for the larger regions in 1998. ODA's proposal angered not only Prime Minister Vaclav Klaus. The Christian Democrats regard the draft as an explicit violation of the coalition agreement and claim this step could block the bill's approval in Parliament. Lenka Javurkova/Matej Cerny Med Students Go on Strike for Their Professor On April 30, medical staff of the Prague-Motol Faculty Hospital went on a five-day strike (see Carolina 245). The reason for this was the sacking of Dr. Josef Dvorak, chief of the surgery department. Helena Rognerova, director of the hospital, explained her decision with 3-million-crown deficit. However, Dvorak is also vice dean of the Second Medical School of Charles University (LFUK) and his colleagues see his sacking as interference in academic freedoms. Medical students stand by their professor as well. "We, students of the LFUK, are going on a protest strike from Friday, May 2 to Wednesday, May 7," they wrote in their leaflet. According to the Respekt weekly, only 7 per cent of the hospital's employees joined the strike, while almost all students went on strike and 410 of 664 signed the petition. "I am proud of them," said Physicians' Union Club Chairman Dr. David Rath. "For the first time since the Velvet Revolution they showed that they are able to recognize the time when democracy is in danger," he added. The students are also convinced that Rogner, together with Health Minister Jan Strasky and Education Minister Ivan Pilip, interfered in academic freedoms. However, little media and public attention was given to their demonstration in front of the Charles University Rector's Office. Michal Schindler/Matej Cerny Olga Havlova Award For the last three years the Good Will Committee - Olga Havlova Foundation has presented the Olga Havlova Award to people who have managed to overcome their medical disability and provide care to other disabled people. This year's award was given to Iveta Peskova by President Vaclav Havel and his new wife Dagmar (Olga died in 1996) May 5 in Prague's Municipal House. Peskova, a Prague native, is the founder of the civic association Prosaz and she work as an accountant at the movement Life 90. During the celebration, Good Will Committee Director Milena Cerna described Peskova as a "true example of optimism for everyone who feels disspirited." The most prominent sponsors, donors and those who cooperate with the Good Will Committee received as a gesture of thanks a special edition of Havel's book 10 Letters to Olga, signed by the president. Denisa Vitkova/Sofia Karakeva Armament Trade Fair IDET 97 Opens in Brno The Armament Trade Fair IDET 97 opened May 6 in Brno under the sponsorship of President Vaclav Havel and with the attendance of Defense Minister Miloslav Vyborny and Interior Minister Jan Ruml. Trade fair visitors could admire the modernized T-72 tank, destined for the Czech army, and the Swedish JaS-39 Gripe combat plane, which is contending for the tender to modernize the Czech Army air force. A press conference was disrupted when two activists from the ecological movement Duha unfurled a banner reading "Give peace a chance." Vyborny managed the situation with the remark that giving a chance to the army of a democratic country does not deprive the possibility of giving peace a chance. David Vlk/Sofia Karakeva FOREIGN AFFAIRS Klaus in Vienna focuses on Czech Entry to Supranational Structures Prime Minister Vaclav Klaus had discussions with Austrian President Thomas Klestil May 5 in Vienna focusing on the possible membership of the Czech Republic in NATO and the EU. Austrian Chancellor Viktor Klima informed Klaus that Austria does not feel any time pressure for making its own decision on the prospective ending of its neutrality and entrance into NATO, but it respects the Czech Republic's decision to pursue membership. Klestil also spoke with the Czech prime minister about the consequences for the Czech Republic of Austria's joining the Schengen agreements, according to which border controls among member states must be eased and external borders more strictly guarded. As Klaus emphasized, it would be helpful to set up special customs lanes for Czech citizens and joint Czech-Austrian customs clearance should begin at a minimum of two border crossings. Klaus, together with his Austrian counterpart, also discussed the possibility of jointly hosting the European soccer championships in 2004. On April 30 the cabinet decided to support the Czech Republic's bid to co-host the European soccer championships in 2004 and the world skiing championships in 2003. Petra Sevcikova/Andy Faust Social Democrats Encouraged by Labour Victory Czech politicians are of differing opinion whether the British election results will influence the domestic political scene. After 18 years of Conservative rule in Britain, the Labour party, led by Tony Blair, has now come to power. The debate focuses on whether the British election results are a signal of a similar trend in the Czech political scene. Czech Social Democrat Chairman Milos Zeman asserts that they are. Immediately after they became known, he said, "The Czech Republic is the last museum piece of outdated economic theory and practice in Europe. We should do all that we can to ensure that it doesn't remain so for very long." As he further argued, the Czech Republic is now the only country in Europe whose government wishes to create an economy without social and environmental qualifiers. Prime Minister Vaclav Klaus refuted Zeman's statements. "A democratic change of government is entirely normal and it is occurring quite naturally after a long but very successful period of 18 years of Conservative Party government," Klaus said. He also added that for him Zeman was no Czech Blair. "The Czech labor party is still far from having its revolution," he said. ODA Chairman Michael Zantovsky does not expect the British election to have any negative impact on the European integration process. Labour's victory also gave Czech Communists reasons for optimism. "We're convinced that a similar shift will occur sooner or later here, too, and that will include an increase in support for our party," stated Communist spokeswoman Vera Zezulkova. Petra Sevcikova/Andy Faust FROM SLOVAKIA Kinkel in Slovakia about NATO German Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel visited Slovakia May 2. The agenda of his talks with his Slovak counterpart Pavel Hamzik was focused on Slovakia's possible entry into NATO. Both ministers also signed a new agreement on mutual cultural cooperation. German CDU deputy Andreas Krautscheid, a member of Kinkel's delegation, told the Slovak daily SME that while Germany supports the incorporation of Slovakia into NATO, on the other it does not agree with Slovakia's entry in the first wave of new members. Nonetheless, both the foreign ministers came to the conclusion that German-Slovak relations are basically problem-free. Marketa Kropacova/Milan Smid Czech Vice Premier Lux's Lecture in Trnava While attending the Pan-European Parliament Conference on Peripheral Development in Bratislava, Czech Vice Prime Minister and Agriculture Minister Josef Lux visited Trnava University May 5. He addressed the university audience with a paper, The Christian in Politics. Jan Potucek/Milan Smid ECONOMY MARKETS & COMPANIES * The Prague Stock Exchange is still falling, thanks to the decline of its most reliable issues, such as Commerce Bank (Komercni banka), SPT Telecom, CEZ (Ceske energeticke zavody) and Chemopetrol, which pulled down the PX-50 index last week. Surprisingly, the closely followed shares of Investment and Postal Bank (Investicni a postovni banka), involved in a police investigation, did not change their price. Obviously, everybody has taken a wait-and-see approach. The PX-50 index has again come close to the psychological barrier of 500 points, its value standing at 508 points after the May 6 session. * The Prague Stock Exchange is going to delist another 500 seldomly traded issues by the end of May. The number of companies removed from stock exchage trading will exceed 1,000, with no end in sight. In the long run, only 300 issues should remain in the game. The exchange at one time traded about 1,700 issues. * Philip Morris certainly made a good deal by investing in Kutna Hora's Tabak company. The Americans have three-quarters ownership of the company, which consistently maintains a high net profit. Last year's profits climbed to 1.6 billion crowns with sales of 10.7 billion Czech crowns. * Turkish Railways chose the Trinec Steel Mill to supply its rails. The contract is worth 600 million crowns. * The HBSW company, known for its Good Water (Dobra voda) throughout the country, was sold to the Dutch firm Ronaldsay, which now owns 78 per cent of HBSW's shares. * Marko and Vladimir Stehlik were definitively relieved of all positions in the Poldi Steel company after Poldi's general meeting.

Thus 40,000 visitors got a chance, most for the first time in their lives, to see all the interiors in their nearly original form (the Municipal House first opened in 1912). To be seen were not only Smetana Hall (where, for example, Prague Spring concerts take place), both restaurants and the famous Secessionist Sladkovsky Dance Hall, but also rooms that are usually closed to the public. Visitors could be dazzled by Alfons Mucha's decoration in the Mayor's Salon, the Oriental Salon or the connecting passage between the Municipal House and the Powder Tower. The American bar, reconstructed only from old photographs and furnished with period replicas, was also a focus of attention. Since May 3 an exhibit has been open in the Municipal House about the landmark's history, together with a Czech Art Nouveau exhibit. Simona Malkovska/Denisa Vitkova FAMU 97 Festival in Prague's Archa Theater About 70 works in competition were shown at the FAMU 97 festival, organized by FAMU (Film Arts Academy) students and graduates. Besides the competition pieces, from among which the best works in 10 categories were awarded the Maxim Prize, a complementary program was also arranged. FAMU students and graduates sang, played, recited and exhibited photographs and pictures. Director Vera Chytilova (Daisies) and documentary filmmaker Karel Vachek let the public look into their creative workshops, Slovak director Juraj Jakubisko loaned his drawings as well as pictures by deceased producer Elo Havetta. The competition grew by one category - commercials, clips and video-art, which are considered by some a legitimate audiovisual genre, to which the laws of filmmaking apply. The jury called the works of a relatively high quality. Director Jaromil Jires pointed out that the directing students are still in the shadow of popular documentary directors, who are now FAMU favorites. Public interest was a pleasant surprise - there were about 200 tickets sold daily, including a non-Prague audience. Lucie Vackova/Denisa Vitkova Art Garfunkel Sings in Prague American singer Art Garfunkel, on a tour of Europe, gave a performance May 5 in Prague's Congress Center (formerly the Palace of Culture). As a special guest, British artist Mal Pope, well known in Great Britain and Wales, also took part in the program. Aside from Garfunkel's solo songs, the audience enjoyed well-worn hits from the annals of Simon and Garfunkel tunes. Denisa Vitkova/Denisa Vitkova SPORTS Czech Hockey Players Blunder in World Championships Final Group In their last match in the basic group, a match which could not prevent their advance to the final part of the world championships in Finland, the Czech national team easily defeated France 9-3 (2-3, 3-0, 4-0). They lost a careless first period due to mistakes in defense, but after a stringent reprehension from the coaches they began a real exhibition. The "Blue Line" of Vujtek - Patera - M. Prochazka particularly shone. Goals: Vyborny 2, M.Prochazka 2, Vykoukal, Lang, Patera, Reichel, Ujcik - Bozon 2, Pouget. The first match in the final group did not turn out well for the Czech team, it lost to the United States 3-4 (0-1, 1-3, 2-0). The Czechs played lamely against a weak American team, they made a lot of mistakes like goalie Cechmanek's trip to the corner for the puck, allowing Donato take the puck and scored in an empty goal for the Americans' second goal. The defending world champions managed to lower the score from an outrageous 1-4 to 3-4, but that was all. Goals: Vujtek 2, Dopita - Donato 2, Beers, Marinucci. If the Czechs still want to get a medal, they must win their last two matches, against Canada and Sweden. Pavel Novak/Mirek Langer After deadline: Czech Republic - Canada 5-3 (Vujtek's hattrick), Czech Republic - Sweden 0-1 Olga Sipkova Became World Champion Olga Sipkova got the first historic gold medal in the aerobic world championships in Sydney May 3-4. Sipkova, silver medalist from the last championships, got to the first place already in the qualification and held it by excellent performance through the semifinal and final. "I did not fly from Prague with big ambitions, but when I managed to win the qualification, I started to think about a medal. The repeated win in the semifinal then fortified my psychically huge," champion told to the Pravo newspaper. The men team Jakub Strakos, David Holzer and Vladimir Valouch got bronze medals and round off the Czech team success. The Czech Republic became the most successful country in the championships with Spain and Australia, all getting two medals. Roman Jedlicka/Mirek Langer Soccer League 26th Round - Sparta and Slavia Do Not Falter The leading candidates for the league championship did not falter in the 26th round of the soccer league May 2-4: Sparta Praha shot with vigor and outclassed Ceske Budejovice 5-0, Slavia Praha decided its intracity match with Bohemians in the first half and defeated them 2-0. Third-place Liberec did not manage to overcome the barbed Viktoria Zizkov defense and tied 0-0, so Jablonec jumped over Viktoria into third place after a 1-0 win in Plzen. Other results: Olomouc - Ostrava 1-1, Drnovice - Hradec Kralove 1-1, Karvina - Teplice 2-0, Brno - Opava 2-0. With four rounds to the league season's end, Sparta leads the standings three points ahead of Slavia, newly third-place Jablonec has 11 points less but one match (with fourth-place Liberec) still to play. In last place, Bohemians have replaced Karvina. Honza Mazak/Mirek Langer SPORTS IN BRIEF * Czech triple-jumper Sarka Kasparkova, who took third in the Atlanta Olympics, won the first track and field Grand Prix in Rio de Janeiro. She jumped 14.50 meters and defeated Chistyakova (Slovakia, 14.07m) and Kravets (Ukraine, 14.02m) * Jaroslav Hules, the only Czech racer in the motorcycling world championships, finished 14th in the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez May 3 and received two points. He is 16th in the season standings. Roman Jedlicka and Honza Mazak/Mirek Langer WEATHER The sun over the Czech Republic gathered its strength and has been performing in the grand style since the weekend. Not to mention occasional showers May 4, but the next two days the sun shone as hard as it could. The optimists put on their summer dresses, pessimists still stuck to their jackets. The temperature climbed up to 22 degrees Celsius/73 degrees Fahrenheit in the shade (in the sun almost 33 degrees Celsius/90 degrees Fahrenheit), while at night the mercury holds at 15 degrees Celsius/60 degrees Fahrenheit. Alas, the summer lasted only two days. Cool wind brought clouds and rain to Prague already May 6, and forecasts for the rest of the week are not very rosy. Metereologists are hesitating to give us a straightforward forecast because they do not want to ruin their reputation.
