ADDENDUM TO TODAY'S EDITION OF "CAROLINA" 

     On  Thursday,  July  2,  CSFR  President  Vaclav  Havel named a new 
federal government headed by premier Josef Strasky. 
     On the same  day the praesidium of the  Czech National Council (the 
Czech parliament) named Vaclav Klau premier of the Czech government, and 
the ministers he put forward were also named to their posts. 
     The complete composition of the  federal and Czech governments will 
be in the next number of Carolina. 
     On Friday, July  3, a common session of parliament  met in order to 
vote  for president  of the   Czech and  Slovak Federative  Republic. In 
a secret  vote  the  only  candidate,  Vaclav  Havel,  failed to win the 
three-fifths  majority needed  to win  (the candidate  of the Republican 
Party,  Juraj  Cop,  withdrew  his  name).  The  deputies announced that 
a second vote for the head of the state would take place again today. In 
the  Assembly of  the People  in  this  round there  were 150  qualified 
voters, of whom 149 cast votes. In total, there were 80 votes for Vaclav 
Havel. In the Assembly of the Nations, for the Czech Republic there were 
74 votes cast, of whom 45 were  for Havel. For the Slovak Republic there 
were 75 votes case,  of whom only 18 were for Havel.  The result of this 
vote means  that a second  round of elections  must be held,  in which 
Havel's name may not appear. Voting in this second round will be held in 
the building of  the Federal Assembly on Thursday, July  16 at 9:00 a.m. 
In the event that no candidate wins in round two, Havel could again be a 
candidate in the following round.
